Nice work - hope it goes well! I have a few iBook G3 500MHz's to repair at some point - I don't know why I like the icebooks - I just do

Posting from my phone so I'll keep this simple. The iBook is back from surgery, currently in intensive care but the procedure otherwise appeared to be a success. Just need to keep …

There was software that allowed it to emulate an Apple II but you couldn't run Apple II software without first running that emulation software. So in some ways that made it more li…

Who told u the IIGS used a 65802? IIRC the ppc chips have a real 68LC040@33mhz onboard. no software conversion at all. Click to expand... 68K software on PPC machines runs in a…

If we could only get Houston ComputerWorks to do the same thing. I'm always seeing at least one old Mac in the back due to get chopped.

Goodwill ComputerWorks - Austin decided to resume selling older hardware. The result was an afternoon of 68k conquest: Quadra 605 LC III IIsi Atari 1040 STE unused - CIB Atar…

Will probably attempt the repair today. I have 2 chances to get this right (2 logic boards) but i'd like to get it right the first time around. Although we don't have the fine tip …

I assume ~tl will probably come in later on and back up what I'm saying, but yeah, its not going to happen, as others have said there's no need for it since what applies to one ver…

My iBook has the same problem. I might be tempted to rip it open and re-solder the GPU when I have some time. I've only had it a few weeks before it failed, but during that time I…

I have owned 4 Ti's in my lifetime. Let me tell you those hinges are as weak as they come. When opening the LCD do so from the center so as to minimize the stress on either hinge.…

The current software forum doesn't have enough posting traffic to warrant splitting it up into sub-forums. Like others have said, most system software discussion between System 7 a…

This is a bad idea and a waste of time. Why would we want so many sub-forums? Simply leaving things in the Software forum is fine. There is no need to change how things are being…

A lot of what applies to System 6, 7, 8, or 9 also applies to each other. Additionally, the volume of posts is not that great. I don't think sub-forums are needed.

Any thoughts on the Sub-Forums, for each OS?

Followed the guide to the word, it failed, and I yanked the power and ditched the fan. Click to expand... So the fan "melted" or merely "failed" now? If truly melted, I for on…

  (It's a backup battery, actually.)   Now that it has booted, leave it plugged in, shut it down, then plug in your backup battery. If the main battery is dead, leave it out of …

Post count would be a horrendous idea because we've had trouble with it in the past. Back before the Great Crash of 2007 we had a post count display and actually had ranks based o…

I just don't think that is very useful.. Click to expand... It helps us find the noobs, that's about all.

You guys are probably right. I was pretty much certain my memories were wrong, but anyway. I hadn't seen a SE/30 since that one when I got mine a couple of weeks ago, so I thought …

$5.00 - grabbed a 1U “3Com SuperStack II Hub 10,” dunno if it's a router, hub or what, but it's got RackMacHack written ALL over it! Click to expand... Terrific. Just so's you …

Minutes after posting I found this, and thought it would fit on topic…

Oh, okay. Guess I was wrong about the C1 being replaced. Since it didn't look like the other capacitors, I just assumed it was a replacement made by some other company...oh well.…

If MacPlayMate is simply a runtime engine for Comic Works or Video Works or whatever, there's an opportunity for fun. Click to expand... It is, for VideoWorks. And it is fun… …
