Saturday there was a recycling program at a church and I volunteered to help with the electronics. Most of the people there were really nice but this one guy hated me, he wouldn't …

I just did this, I actually just popped it open with a screwdriver and radioshack sells a 6v 4.5AH battery that fits snugly into the old battery for 20 dollars...

The biggest I have tried as 20 gigabyte (used a  powermac laptop hard disk with adaptor) .  Only issue is having 10 partitions as that fills up the screen with drives.  The Mac is …

Very good! Now all you need to do is retrobright the space bar, and you can get it looking even better! c

I would suspect that these machines can accept drives up to 128 GB, like they're contemporary PC counterparts (I'm not 100% certain of this, but it seems logical that it would EDIT…

I did not look close at connector. I may be wrong, but there may be two different style connectors. I know not all widgets are the same. Not sure on power. Also it may be an after…

Any ideas when the WIKI is fixed? Maybe a repair of the database necessary?  Need any help?

Aha! I tried it on a widget drive I have (wrapped in plastic) and ...yes...it fits! Not sure what the power like cable is for. I see the widget drive needs a more complex power pl…

The image is even more clear now. I adjusted the image on the back of the PSU. Now the screen is crystal clear! View attachment 6314

Yep, unlikely you will find a brand new replacement part... best bet is to find a stuffed 1400 on the cheap with a good LCD and scavenge parts.

... from another junker 1400cs or 1400c, they are a straight swap.  No other easy way to source the part.

Hello everyone I've got a powerbook 1400 with a broken lcd panel but could not find a repair part. Any idea where I can find? Thx

So last night, I pulled the logic board board back out of the SE/30 to have a closer look for damage and ascertain it's general condition prior to sending it for a recap. I beleive…

Why on earth is the max ram in this Mac an odd amount? I haven't tried to put a 32mb simm in the slot labeled 16mb max... But I was curious if anyone ever tried, or modified this? …
