Clarification would be nice... and I've even had someone from Sonnet tech support refuse to replace an accelerator under warranty because he said this is the way it worked even tho…

Sonnet Crescendo 1ghz G4 for beige PCI Powermacs. I've been seeing a few of these being sold by Mac dealers on ebay for $225-$250 so grabbed this one because it was only $100. You …

Clarification would be nice... Could someone please tell me if there are ANY documented accelerators which work in L2 cache slots which are supposed to be "enabled" after the mach…

Sweet That bad boy deserves a worthy host - may I suggest your 9500? Click to expand... I was thinking that, too. I was originally going to put it in the 9600 when it gets …

Yup, the extruded melamine acts as a mild abrasive. It will clean hard to clean spots, but you do need to use care.

Gotta be careful with the magic erasers as they will abrade the plastic and smooth it if it has a textured surface. Magic Erasers will also remove the printed name from the case i…

I've used Magic Erasers with pretty good success.

GOO GONE, its a citrus type of adhesive remover quite safe for plastics, however there is a product by a similar name called goop off, and that stuff will eat plastic like mad, so …

Eucalyptus oil is supposed to be good for sticker residue

Dude, I would highly recommend the Retr0brite. Its awesome!! All my Classic Macs are white now! Get Clairol Pro 40 cream developer and a brush. Clean the case well with Simple…

Well, spanking it, dropping it and tapping it gently with a sledgehammer didn't help. Salvation came in the form of a PB160 with a bad screen that generously donated its hard…

I also noticed there is a dealer selling new G3 500 upgrades for the 7500 et al Macs for $199.95. That's kinda stupid since Sonnet still has stock of those for $50. 8-o Click t…

Not bad! I could use one of those in my beige G3, but I'm too cheap. Click to expand... This is the one for the earlier Macs, not the G3 ZIF socket. There was a 1ghz upgrade fo…

Answer is NOPE. It looked like it should fit, but it wouldn't sit flush with the case. Oh well.

I have two 150's here that have entire sections of the screens dead. They partially work, but those dead areas make it impossible to really use them. Click to expand... I have …

I don't know if an emulator might work. Hal said he thought it wouldn't wouldn't. A few years back I did try two of the more popular emulators with no success. And I have been told…

I have a ton of old Thinkpads with great screens from the mid 1990's, yet a few newer with some pink or dead bulbs. If I had to guess I think the older smaller screens had bulbs th…
