For 8.6 and later MOM/MOL doesn't need a ROM image.

Yeah, get with the times and upgrade already. Everyone's doing it!

My assumption would be that you can't use a 68k ROM with a PPC emulator... good luck, as you'll need somebody to rip a ROM image from an older PPC mac, maybe a 8100? Or even better…

cache is built into the processor card, so you dont have to worry about that. you will, however, have to worry about the voltage regulator. There is a certain brand that fries an…

I just took apart one of the G3 AIOs that was arcing particularly violently. I blew everything out with canned air and jiggled the analog board a little bit and now, so far at leas…

I'd like to get a faster G3 before getting a G4. The only reason to run G4 would be OSX but I have another machine with that. I'd just like to trick it out enough to get the Wings …

how much are you looking to upgrade it? I upgraded mine pretty intensely. Specs are in the signature. macsales.com is where i get most of my parts.

The ROMs are on SIMMs so getting a B or C revision is not an issue. I upgraded one of mine to a later revision just so slave drives on the IDE bus worked. I think there are also is…

Success! After destroying my first CF-IDE adapter, I got two new ones in the mail and finally got around to putting a 1GB CF drive in. I booted with the case off with both the SCS…

Tweezers? Try taking the disk out with a pair of them.

If I get this up and running, I'll definitely keep an eye out for an upgrade kit, equant -- thanks. It is too bad that the TCP/IP connection isn't persistent; I wonder why they mad…

...or just hold the trackpad button down -- an external mouse isn't a requirement, AFAIK. The trackpad button method has saved my bacon many a time.

I've had an eMate for well I don't know. I got it new after they discontinued, so 10 years? I've used it for many things, and am quite fond of it. I do think the HWR is a bit qu…

Didn't read the page, but the bits I glossed over reflect my recollections: http://www.macgeekery.com/tips/cli/nondestructively_resizing_volumes I don't know if you need an Intel…

I deeply appreciate the tips, beachycove. I will perform the hard reset dance at the first opportunity. It would be nice to get it working. It looks like a neat little machine for…

I have the full 1GB in my B&W so I know what you mean.
