Very nice. I have a PC Radeon I would love to flash. Care to share how it's done?

I can't really complain about 30 dollar g4 mini Click to expand... No, no you can't. That would be ground to send out the MLA Conquest Appreciation Hit Squad, and we barely go…

Seems like a conquest to me, and a decently priced one too.

Or in a dry/cool basement.

The Apple Network Servers used the same style of keys.

Are there Quadra-era Macs or early PPCs that 72-pin 64MB EDO chips would work in? Click to expand... Some time ago, I sat down with a pile of RAM (32 MB, 64 MB and 128 MB SIMMs…

Let me guess . . . I NEED that frickin' ROM SIMM to get this thing to boot . . . : Click to expand... Nope, not given the circumstances. First, you wouldn't get a star…

If you wanted to fake some of what a Mac Charlie was capable of today you could connect a compact Mac to a Linux (Or other x86 *nix) machine via a serial cable, get a console via a…

Yes I did get the tower at the flea market, I didn't pay $35 however, I got it as a bundle with a few other items. Thanks for all of your information and help, you've confirmed my…

I'm not sure this totally qualifies as a conquest, but I'm happy... I went to the Trenton Computer Festival on Saturday and got a couple of nice items for cheap. The first is a S…

I would say your problem is the CPU, if you replace the CPU you still may have quirks in the system but it will boot. It's odd because I had the exact same issue before Xmas. Chec…

So I picked up this G4 Dual 1GHz MDD tower yesterday for under $50. Click to expand... Just curious... I notice that your location is NJ. Was this the $35 one at the TCF flea m…

I have not actually gotten the machine yet, but one of my good friends from huntsville has a mac mini and I asked him if he would sell it to me I was thinking maybe he'd take 80 fo…

Sounds odd for the CPU but usually if everything else is good and you have a bad CPU you get a few dings or beeps...or something like that. I suspect that it is more related to th…

So I picked up this G4 Dual 1GHz MDD tower yesterday for under $50. It had no HD, RAM, or Video card. So without that all it wouldn't boot, the LED power light would go on for a se…

Thanks a ton for the info! Not sure how I missed the site in Google, oh well. I'd love to see the thing in action, I assume they're rather uncommon so I suppose getting my hands o…

For MP3 files, you are going to want at least CD quality, which is 16-bit 44.1kHz. Well, the 605 maxes out at 8-bit 22.050kHz which is a great deal lesser than CD-quality, VERY no…

aye I bought a thrift store pc for a buck for its 5.25 so I can backup some of my old dos games

I remember someone told me that modern comb filters on the last generation or two of tube TV's was to blame for the useless image that is generated by older computer systems that o…

I can say with some degree of certainty that we won't be doing paper reprints – it's just too labour intensive to print off one or two copies at a time. Number 2 is coming along n…

Apple Two-Page Monochrome Monitor bought one to use with my Quadra 700, as secound display, for CAD i have 3 of them { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "N…

The MacCharlie only supported text on the PC, not graphics

Well, I snagged a IIsi in order to try out some of the NuBusNonsense that I've proposed for the SE/30. No, HDD, no RAM SIMMs, No ROM SIMM, got a startup chime as is, put some RAM …

Nice score, I got a ][gs back in june but haven't been able to use it (TVs make terrible composite monitors). The one time I did use it, the power supply was making noises. Clic…
