OK, will try them out

You got lucky if it still has it's hard drive. Most recycling places yank the hard drives and scrap them which really irritates me because those early Macs use drives that are spec…

Geeko - It does have a CD drive that spins, also a floppy. I can provide a battery from a PB 5300 (NiMh) that holds a tiny charge. The unit did not come with a Li-Ion battery, they…

G - say, I have a 3400 with very good cosmetics but the "black screen" issue - probably a dead logic board/VRAM. I think I have decided not to try and fix this one, since my other …

If she can't deal with multiple drives then I'd think that she'd have the same trouble dealing with multiple partitions. So you likely have a choice between teaching her a little m…

The friend that gave that to me said it was used early on in a Papa Johns store.... Hotline to Pizza! They use red Nortel Norstar phones now.

Is that red 'phone connected directly to the Oval Office? ;D

The G4 cube was AGP right? I can't attest to the AGP version of the 6200, BUT I have done the reflash of a 6200 PCI for my B&W upgd G4 450 machine.. It's got the 66 mhz p…
