Outbound Notebook — #26

I suppose a peek inside to look for a PRAM battery could be in order. There may also be some sort of reset button situated internally. You never know. Few of us have ever even s…

Well looks like that may very well be a typo, the only alternative name I've found for Outbound's laptop is "RealTech Travler."

WiFi for compacts?? — #10

For the record, these things already exist. Here's an example of one. Similar devices exist for Ethernet as well. To clarify matters a little bit, these are not general purpose "n…

According to Wikipedia, Outbound was NOT an Australian company - which a lot of people said it was. :-/

Apparently just pressing any key on the keyboard should power it up. http://forum.soft32.com/mac/Outbound-laptop-ftopict7833.html

WiFi for compacts?? — #5

RS-232 to wireless ethernet would be cool. I have a suspicion that the chip controlling it would be more powerful than the Mac using it though Using one with a PowerBook 100 w…

I think at this point in time the best you are going to get is one of the many ethernet > wifi bridges. You'd need to configure it on a PC, but after that it should work nic…

I did something really stupid yesterday... — #14

R$ doesn't carry a matching replacement part and the one they do have will be an ugly install anyways. So, really, I had no choice. I also intend to put copies of the morning se…

Thanks a lot for the links! Out of curiosity, I decided to start up the computer off of battery power, and after a few tries I managed to get the machine to boot off of the System…
