I have just acquired a 133MHZ PC card to drop into my PM6500, but it needs a ram card. It is a Radius card, and I think it takes the same ram as a PM9600, at least according to ne…

Didn't Apple use to have a 50Mhz 601 PPC Upgrade for older macs? Does anyone know what happened to it and where i can still get it? ------------------ People aren't as dumb as …

didn't think the LC series had much if any capabilities to upgrade, afterall, LC stand for Low Cost...I have no clue what happened to those upgrades, was going to get one for my II…

The PPC Upgrade fitted inside the PDS slot, the LC series have one PDS slot, so technically it could work, but since PDS slots are different in different kinds of machines, it was …

I wish I could find a PowerPC upgrade for my Mac Quadra 630... I don't use it much anymore, but I'd like it to have a little more horsepower. And no, I don't want to buy a first-ge…

Doesn't Sonnet have a PPC upgrade for LC's? If I remember correctly, it even has ethernet built-in.

An LC cannot be upgraded to PowerPC. Sonnet's 68040 "upgrade" is a motherboard replacement, I think.

The 50Mhz PPC Upgrade that Apple offered is compatible with the LC 475, i know this for a fact, i just do not know where to find it. ------------------ People aren't as dumb as…

Hehe, 40Mhz of raw power! Makes my Yosemite G3/400 look pathetic! Anyway, all of the first four LC series and the Performa 475, 476, and the Quadra 605 (damn, what was apple th…

There was an Apple and a Daystar upgrade for the 68LC040 Macs. The Apple version was called the "Macintosh Processor Upgrade." It has a Power PC 601 which will double the speed of…

Too bad there were few made and Daystar is out of business. Maybe you can find a PowerCard on eBay at an inflated price.

Hi, I just got the cool idea to make my powerbook pismo transparant blue. I saw a picture of the new 2001 powerbook, which was pure fantasy, but it did look extremely cool. Instea…

I think the metallic powerbooks you're referring to, used adhesive metallic paper attached to the existing panels. I suppose that if someone had enough skill in plastic fabrication…

Don't forget that Apple may use some of this metal for shielding against hazardous emissions (for you and the computer) . . . in their recent translucent products, shielding is tak…

if someone can tell me how to attach a picture to my replies I can show you what I mean, Micha

UBB Code tags here.. You want to use the <img> tags. Upload the picture to a website, or if its already at one, get its location. Then paste it into the body of the p…

To SpiffyGuyC: Your claim that Apple has found a way to make the translucent plastic work as shielding is wrong. In the iBook there are sheets of metal in the casing to work as sh…

I want to install a CPU fan for my Yosemite G3, i know what most of you are thinking, you don't need a fan for the Yosemite series, it alreayd runs quite cool enough, but i'm going…

Assuming you have a PCI slot free, just drop in a fan card (PCI slot fan) or a slot covering fan (that mounts on the slots cover plate) that will cool the whole motherboard. They'r…

IS there such a thing? Wow, i never heard of them, do you know where i can get them? ------------------ People aren't as dumb as you think. Wait, what was I thinking, 90% of the…

Anybody ever get a G4 (small one) keyboard lit up using cable lights/ LEDs, or anything? I use a keyboard drawer. At night, it is hard to see the keys, because the desk blocks la…

I started a thread about just that subject a while back. it's still in this form, and I believe that somebody did do it, although I'm too lazy to go and check. -Ruddigger
