Turns out that the iMac G5 is 1.8GHz/1GB RAM/160GB HD/CD-RW with a 128MB Radeon 9600 graphics card and Leopard Server. The G4 was 933MHz/512MB/60GB/Combo Drive So sadly these are…

Powerbook 1400 Browsing Speed — #2

My browser preference is obvious but WannaBe works very well on the 1400 as a text browser. Really, though, my 1400 got much more useful when I put a G3 and RAM Doubler on it. …

G4 refuses to boot OS 9.1 CD — #8

For the records: A 9.2.2 CD bundled with a later G4 worked quite well. It´s still verry strange to me, but the bought 9.1 refuses to boot, but a 9.2.2 works (even if it was made fo…

G4 refuses to boot OS 9.1 CD — #7

Your 9.1 CD is probably a few months older than your G4, and it lacks some driver needed to boot the Mac. Similarly, my new Mini came with Leopard, but it won't boot from a 10.5.0 …

Nice newer PPC finds! — #6

The iMac sounds good, but I reckon that you should offer less for the 933Mhz G4 (Quicksilver?). A dualie G4 is still good for "everyday" use but a single G4 933Mhz won't cut it, o…

Holy of Holies -- Quadra 840AV! — #16

Don't you hold down some modifier key as you open the Memory control panel and it gives you that option? I remember something like that. Because really, RAM doesn't fail all that…

Apple ][ Emulated — #4

Latest ProTerm is here: http://lostclassics.apple2.info/downloads/?dl_cat=10 and they explicitly ask that it not be mirrored. It'll take some doing to get it from .shk format in…

What revision of the logic board in a macintosh 128k? — #9

What revision of the logic board in a macintosh 128k? — #8

Carlo (Mr.T), after reading your post again I see that you are expressing disappointment over not having a stock 128k. What I can say is that 128k logic boards are often sold on E…

The dual G4 sounds like a great deal if it works and is complete. I am waiting for G4's to be about worthless and then snag one or two for the collection (os 9.x native booting mod…
