I'm pretty sure it's 40 pins, but I can check tomorrow on my own PowerBook 180 to make sure. I don't see any on eBay, but you could ask around in the trading forum of this site.

I suppose it might be possible (long shot) to set up the module to act as an Appletalk bridge by writing a custom firmware for it. / port something like NetaTalk / emulate an Local…

What if there was a wiki about old macs where we combined Jag's House, Gamba, and others links into one place to make finding info easier? It would be similar to the 68kMLA wiki b…

I picked up a 17" Apple Studio Display, and a Power Mac G5 from a music school about a week ago. - The CRT monitor works great. I have it connected to my 68k PowerBook. The color …

Why did I say wheelie bin? Because that's what HE said. Turned out to be a large tub, about three quarters full. I'm kind of glad in a way, because, I wouldn't have had the space…

Here's another pic of the LC 475 motherboard (my own) with a LC PDS video card if that helps:

Here's another pic of a 475/605: comm slot may not work when a IIe card is installed http://support.apple.com/kb/TA46886?viewlocale=en_US. Click to expand... Well, it …

What a great find! Does it contain a stock SE motherboard or something similar? Should be very rebuild-able. Have you tried powering it up without the main battery in place? It may…

Don't forget that you can talk to whoever sold it to you and tell them it was damaged in shipping.

I have some nicer shots of the Quadra 605 if there's anyone interested: http://macgui.com/upload/gallery/f_0/user_2/regular/upload_1103.jpg http://macgui.com/upload/gallery/f_0/u…

Technically haven't actually grabbed it yet, I'm leaving work early in a bit here and driving about an hour to pick it up. Not the color model, 28 megs ram, unknown HD. Boots into …

There are also two 500 MB PB SCSI drives for the best offer here: http://www.surpluscomputerliq.com/cgi-bin/mccsearch.pl (PN 661-0175) I would gladly take the parts.

Hi Grampa. My LC's power supply has the same symptoms you've mentioned, the clicking sound. It's most likely toast.

If you put ECC memory controllers in desktop PCs, what sort of quality control do you expect? I guess that Intel would do a good job overall (some of their ICH chipsets have proble…

The 575 board is a popular upgrade for Colour Classics, so if you decide to go that route, you might find useful information on those sites.

Thanks, Gorgonops, for those great ideas. Software and I parted company when the goto statement was outlawed (a legal condition of getting my graduate degree was that I not write c…

Well I found a 165 on ebay for $15.. no cord or battery but I can just use the ones I have, maybe its hard drive will be working. I guess I'll cannibalize the 145's and combine any…

I have a 300mhz Wallstreet which mostly works well, but has a couple of issues: First, I think I have some version of the charging board problem. In my case, the system recognizes…

Will the 575 mb fit in a 605 case? Click to expand... It might fit, but it won't be a drop in replacement. There would be a load of hackery involved. Here's an LC575 motherbo…

Finally, it was a big mistake for Apple not to include ECC memory support in at least the "Pro" desktops. IBM has good engineers, but they come from a background that assumes that …
