Update: My daughter LOVES Math Rabbit. I think I'll have to find some other vintage age-appropriate games for her. Maybe I'll get her started on LOGO Turtle, and get her programm…

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.

For $40 CAD I got a Pentium 3 850MHz, 256MB ram, and 20GB HD, with a 17" viewsonic flat CRT monitor. I am going to install Linux on this beast, or Rhapsody.

I think I might have cracked my own problem; enabling me to install OS 9.2.2 without my original cube CPU, and without installing on another computer:
1. re-install Mac OS 10.4 (C…

Except for the default sounds in OS/2 3.0 Warp. They are extremely naff and irritating.

and get rid of that damn color classic board lol

Just my opinion, but I reckon it would be a good idea to keep the original board in case you ever decide to…
If you still have the original CPU, swap that in, install, and swap back. You might want to get a legit full retail copy of 9.2.2. as well.
Is the optical drive known good? ie w…
I finally cleaned my IIci motherboard. I used a large diameter bucket with Alconox detergent mixed with warm water. It really brightened things up. It worked so well actually th…

Yeah, the only thing I can think of is to get a cheap G4 CPU online, like one that came out of a sawtooth or something. (I looked at pictures and they theoretically should work. bo…
Would love to see some photos of the 500 if you get a chance. I don't know this model, is it like the form factor of the 520 and 540 ("Blackbird") models?

Thank You. Well, everything's going well, except that I can't get off this metal shelf from the back side of the 7100. Two clips are holding it. I don't want to break it up.

Hi, I've got a Cube, upgraded with a PowerLogix 7448 1.7GHz CPU card.
Now, I'd *really* like to be able to install OS9 on this machine. But I can't seem to get the damn thing righ…
This is very good news because I just bought a 128mb 72pin simm module. I bought an entire LC 550 machine today, so I can pull the board out of that when I receive it, put that int…

So wow that is a good find there. I wish I could of got that, But wow that guy was using the StyleWriter Power brick. He must of not able to read what it said. That is funny tho an…
I'm fairly sure the guts of the 575 and 550 (apart from the logic board of course) are pretty much identical. The displays are the same (which is the most important factor), so it …
I've used a steel ruler to slide into a slot and then firmly push it up to slide up the tab, you need to remove the battery to take the top and bottom half of the casing apart.
