Holy of Holies -- Quadra 840AV! — #17

As far as I know, the memory check can't be turned off in the Memory Control Panel on a Quadra. I seem to recall that it requires a PPC and MacOS8 — possibly 8.5 or 8.6. It require…

G4 refuses to boot OS 9.1 CD — #10

The eMac 9.2.2 disc is a good one. The version I have has Mac OS ROM 10.1.1, which is one of the highest versions. I don't think any bootable, 9.2.2 install discs have the higher 1…

G4 refuses to boot OS 9.1 CD — #9

For the records: A 9.2.2 CD bundled with a later G4 worked quite well. It´s still verry strange to me, but the bought 9.1 refuses to boot, but a 9.2.2 works (even if it was made fo…

640CD: How to install DOS? — #7

Is the HDD on the sled? If it is, try putting it in without the sled. It might be an odd-dimensions hard drive, therefore it sticks out a bit. Not every HDD was made to fit into…

Powerbook 1400 Browsing Speed — #5

Classic - Do you have a link for downloading the WannaBe browser? I'd like to give that a try if it would keep other content from trying to load... I wanted to try it with the 1400…

Strawberry iMac! — #5

No, Strawberries came out with the other fruit colors in 2 batches (tray & slot loaders), and Rubies came out with Indigos came but they were more translucent. Tow-may-to,…

Nice newer PPC finds! — #8

If the G4 is a dual CPU machine then yes, you got a good deal. I dislike iMacs so my view is that you wasted money on it.

Strawberry iMac! — #4

Very nice - but I thought Strawberries were tray loaders and Ruby's were slot loaders.

PowerLogix 1 MB L2 Rapidcache — #2

I got one of these for my 7300 back in the day. They really do make a difference and they did indeed cost a fortune when they were new. For $5 it's a great deal - and a cool colle…

Nice newer PPC finds! — #7

Turns out that the iMac G5 is 1.8GHz/1GB RAM/160GB HD/CD-RW with a 128MB Radeon 9600 graphics card and Leopard Server. The G4 was 933MHz/512MB/60GB/Combo Drive So sadly these are…

Powerbook 1400 Browsing Speed — #2

My browser preference is obvious but WannaBe works very well on the 1400 as a text browser. Really, though, my 1400 got much more useful when I put a G3 and RAM Doubler on it. …

G4 refuses to boot OS 9.1 CD — #7

Your 9.1 CD is probably a few months older than your G4, and it lacks some driver needed to boot the Mac. Similarly, my new Mini came with Leopard, but it won't boot from a 10.5.0 …

Nice newer PPC finds! — #6

The iMac sounds good, but I reckon that you should offer less for the 933Mhz G4 (Quicksilver?). A dualie G4 is still good for "everyday" use but a single G4 933Mhz won't cut it, o…
