The 1400 doesn't have ethernet built in but does have scsi. Does you G3 have a scsi card? If so use the scsi disk mode on the powerbook. Jeff

An email from xlr8: "Thank you for asking about XLR8 upgrades! Keep an eye on our website, as that will be one of the first places to see an announcement for G3 upgrades for the …

Can anyone help me find an 8MB iMac Voodoo2 card?

I've got an iMac 233Mhz RevB and I would like to hack PCs or may be Macs. It won't be somethings bad, only to my friends (for fun) and little things, oppening the CD caddy, shut do…

Is there any way for me to get a voodoo card into my rev D imac? Is there some company that will sauder a board in, or has used the "Perch" slot to include 3D rendering? Can I ge…

Hi, Often when the finder on my beige G3 accesses the CD drive (even when just checking it when I try to save a file) the entire system lags for a few seconds. It seems like this…

yes by chance did you buy this at mac mart

No, I bought it at the apple store. Have you come up with any solutions to the problem?

is it a cd or is it a dvd

I have a beige G3 with DVD that exhibits the same delay while the disk is being spun up. It'd be nice if it didn't happen!

I have the same problem exept I have a 6500 with a 12X CD drive. The whole computer momentarally freezes while the CD gets spun up and accessed. Its especially annoying when you ar…

Congratulations, you have just discovered the down side of IDE devices, the CPU is involved in the use of the IDE device so every reference will have a negative impact on your mach…

It's a CD drive, not DVD. sedgwick, the processor idea makes sense, but I'm not sure it explains why the entire computer "locks up". I literally can't do anything but move the …

I wonder if the difference between a Mac and PC with an IDE CD-ROM is that Windows is not as actively aware of whether disks are inserted into drives (CDs, floppies, etc)- I've hea…

Peecees will not let you write to an empty drive. Nice idea, though :-) In addition, peecees *do* have the same delay, IF they are waiting for data from the drive in an active pro…

Running 8.6, have the latest modem updaters from Apple. Still am only able to connect at 21600-28800. Whats up? Not my ISP cuz friend and relative have same ISP and connected in…

Since your friends and relatives can connect at 40k, the problem isn't with your ISP. Since I have a Wallstreet Powerbook running 8.6, and I can connect at 40k, it's probably not …

I agree. Your problem is likely with the phone lines. I connect with my bronze both at home (on two lines, one dedicated and the other my regular phone line) and at work. At work I…

One more thing! I have tried to disconnect all my in-laws various phones and answering machines and such in an attempt to get their connection speed up without success. This somet…

It's the phone lines 99% of the time. Sometimes you have to call the phone company, and ask them to run a line quality test. But disconnect your computer from the phoneline for …

I got that iMac cdrom update and now my cd's are slower than ever. I think it was better off without it. anyone agree? Maybe it's just me. Also, I love the Mac OS but the most an…
