There was an Apple and a Daystar upgrade for the 68LC040 Macs. The Apple version was called the "Macintosh Processor Upgrade." It has a Power PC 601 which will double the speed of…

Too bad there were few made and Daystar is out of business. Maybe you can find a PowerCard on eBay at an inflated price.

Hi, I just got the cool idea to make my powerbook pismo transparant blue. I saw a picture of the new 2001 powerbook, which was pure fantasy, but it did look extremely cool. Instea…

I think the metallic powerbooks you're referring to, used adhesive metallic paper attached to the existing panels. I suppose that if someone had enough skill in plastic fabrication…

Don't forget that Apple may use some of this metal for shielding against hazardous emissions (for you and the computer) . . . in their recent translucent products, shielding is tak…

if someone can tell me how to attach a picture to my replies I can show you what I mean, Micha

UBB Code tags here.. You want to use the <img> tags. Upload the picture to a website, or if its already at one, get its location. Then paste it into the body of the p…

To SpiffyGuyC: Your claim that Apple has found a way to make the translucent plastic work as shielding is wrong. In the iBook there are sheets of metal in the casing to work as sh…

I want to install a CPU fan for my Yosemite G3, i know what most of you are thinking, you don't need a fan for the Yosemite series, it alreayd runs quite cool enough, but i'm going…

Assuming you have a PCI slot free, just drop in a fan card (PCI slot fan) or a slot covering fan (that mounts on the slots cover plate) that will cool the whole motherboard. They'r…

IS there such a thing? Wow, i never heard of them, do you know where i can get them? ------------------ People aren't as dumb as you think. Wait, what was I thinking, 90% of the…

Anybody ever get a G4 (small one) keyboard lit up using cable lights/ LEDs, or anything? I use a keyboard drawer. At night, it is hard to see the keys, because the desk blocks la…

I started a thread about just that subject a while back. it's still in this form, and I believe that somebody did do it, although I'm too lazy to go and check. -Ruddigger

I'm getting a new Apple Pro Keyboard soon, and after I figure out how to wire a power button into it, I'm gonna put lights in my old USB keyboard... lemme know how you go, and I wi…

I Have recently set up an airport at my ISP. My work is about 250ft away from the station where my G4 with airport card is located. What I was wondering, Does anybody know of a hav…

It has been done. Check this out.

Could this really be crash proof? I am using Powerlogix cache utility (I tried xlr8's because I heard it was more stable, but it kept freezing on startup at 2:1). I first set it …

Its fine. I have a 333, and I've been running 3:2 since about february. Doesnt crash, except when using AOL or IE5.

Ca$h, I am about to try that (have had it 2:1) and i need to know, this isn't gonna hurt my imac is something goes awry is it?? What hapenns if it does crash, how do i put it back…

Your iMac will be fine. I believe holding space bar at startup voids the cache profiler prefs, and resets it to normal... Cipher13 [This message has been edited by Cipher13 (edit…

It'll either work or it wont. It worked on both chips I've had, and no problems. I cranked it up to 1:1 and it locked. Then just restart with extensions off (hold down shift) …

I am running my rev. D at 2:1 right now and it almost runs smoother at 3:2. Beats me how, but I had very few problems at 3:2. Just make sure to keep an eye on your CPU temp. Min…

Mine cranked up 13 degrees, but is still below the 75 Celcius high. Love the speed boost though, especially when playing MP3s and doing lots of other stuff. ------------------ --…
