What you you think, was this a good deal or what? — #5
Yeah, here in Australia, they commonly go for $800 - $1200...I don't think i've ever seen a G5 go for less than AU$800, ridiculous, if you ask me.
Personally I think you paid a go…
What you you think, was this a good deal or what? — #4
yes it was 225.00 USD... I been checking them out on ebay and some (like what I just bought today) go for 600.00 and up...

If thats US$225, I think you paid a fair price for it. If you ask me, most PowerPC systems are massively overpriced these days, and I suspect that the values of most PowerPC system…
What you you think, was this a good deal or what? — #2
5 years ago, in 2004, I purchased a used blue & white G3 with 256 MB of RAM and a 20 GB hard disk with nothing but the standard OS 8.5 system install for a little over $200…
ALERT: eBay Auction, Hyperdrive 512k in Disguise! — #15
Yep! That's an MMI drive. You are lucky you got one that was made just right. A lot of them had trouble with excess lubricant on the disk surface spinning to the outside edge where…

The .pkg"->ncu is new to me. I have used Packtype (and occasionally Packager) for years, but had never heard of the other utility. Thanks for the lead.
Power Mac 9500 startup woes — #3
I just gave up and got out the 8100/80 instead, thinking that I'd post here the next day (which I've done).
Maybe someone else has a clue. I wonder if putting in the mis-matched R…

Also formatting floppies in OS X is a bit hit-and-miss. It won't do the part where it goes back and eliminates bad blocks. You also don't get the 100% same full capacity for some…
Now I cannot install 10.2.8 — #6
The thing about 8 GB is - theoretically you can install onto a single partition 120 GB drive using another Mac, then move it to the target Mac and it will boot. However, the instan…

JDW, is your Hyperdrive in running condition? If your Hyperdrive has an MMI or Miniscribe drive, it would be a miracle if it still spins.

Now I cannot install 10.2.8 — #5
I think even if you are installing onto the first 8GB, thats not enough - as Mike said, the drive should be partitioned, with the first partition being no bigger than say, 7.7GB. I…
Power Mac 9500 startup woes — #2
What a coincidence - I just put back together my 9500 yesterday, and got it up and running today.
I can tell you from experience that the 9500 is a real B**** when it comes to cra…

The name of the application you want is called, with the quote marks ".pkg"->NCU just as stated above, its drag and drop and works flawlessly. Its easily one of the greates…

Welcome to the world of Newton ... I have a 2100 sitting on my desk at home it gets the occasional use (criminal I know) I would probably use it more if my Powerbook 1400 was not b…

Cool conquest! I've always been curious about eMates, but one has never come my way at a reasonable price. I have a Message Pad 120 which I haven't gotten farther with than just ma…

I re-tried the same procedure last night, but this time without the tinfoil on the GPU. After I'd left it a little while to cool down, I booted it up and the screen lit up straight…
