The original Macs were called just "Macintosh" since there were no other models to confuse it with. The 128K name came along after the 512K came out, and the badges were changed to…

I have one of those, too. Haven't had it hooked up in years though. Nice conquest!

I will admit to being a little guilty of Quote-button overuse until prodded. I used to be really good about it, but got lazy, and hadn't even noticed I was 'offending' until someo…

Dang... Had one of those in high school, in the auto shop, of all places. They had just gotten the repair manuals for pretty much every car ever made on CD-ROM set, and had them …

Also, if you have the original install discs that came with the iMac, you can run the Apple Hardware Test. You will need to restart the iMac and hold down the Option key whilst re…

I've researched a little bit, and I think its the logic board. The machine, while I tried to update the system software (it's at version 10.4.6), it would not stay on long enough t…

Ooooooh I'll have to chip in. What else do we need? Clamshell iBook?

Okay, well I got to work on it today.. somewhat. It's a first generation iMac G5.. i think the specs were 1.6 GHz/ 256 MB RAM/ 80 GB, 17" screen. I reset the SMU, PRAM, NVRAM, and …

Still have a 2003 PM G5 1.8 Uni which was little or no faster than the PM G4 1.42DP I wanted to replace it with. I added a Radeon X800XT and it is in daily use running 10.5x. Never…

What is the model name on the back of the case? Macintosh, Macintosh 128k, Macintosh 512k? If it was originally a 128k, it has been upgraded.
