Well, it was literally just the computer in the box. I was kinda disappointed. Oh well. The new RAM I bought also works in the Quadra.
I'll keep a lookout on eBay for an acce…

If I understand what you have done and are trying to do, the problem is: a) that 8.1 will not run natively on the 550, and B) that, to my knowledge, you cannot use the ResEdit ha…
One issue with even introducing PPC G1-era Macs is that because they have so much more capability, there could be a tendency for them to dominate retrochallenge. Considering I keep…
I'm not too confident that it would help fix the problem, but its certainly worth a try, the only downside is that you'll lose all your PRAM settings (sound volume, alert sound, da…
Have you looked at the switch that tells the Mac when the lid is closed? That's often a reed switch and magnet. Reed switches have a tendency over time to get "sticky", and your 14…

A 470 uF mylar would be huge! Going up a step in voltage won't hurt, and may offer a bit better reliability, but the temperature rating is a better measure of how long they last. I…

I'd sure like to know where you bought your 128mb module. Mine fit fine, but the computer wouldn't boot, screen stayed black.

The OmniBook 300s are beautiful. Never been able to land one.
I do have a OmniGo 700LX, but no phone for it, of course. I used a 95LX for a long time. A delightful little unit.

It fit fine with the 128MB module? Both of my 128MB modules were too tall, I had to file off the screw peg in order for it to fit. Is the 550 RAM slot located in a different loca…

Dead logic board battery? PRAM needing reset? Hard drive(s) could be of an ATA standard that isn't supported? Maybe the controller for all the drives went dead? All the above? …
