Pawn shops make money selling items like computers to suckers. I have found great deals on hand tools. I have picked up vicegrips, screwdrivers, torque wrenches and more. Never pa…

iBook G3 Clamshell - approximate value? — #7

As fast as computer and video game hardware depreciates, I am surprised pawn shops deal in them at all. If I get $200 for a computer from a pawn shop, all I do is wait a few months…

iBook G3 Clamshell - approximate value? — #5

FWIW, around these parts (Silicon Valley), clamshells are going for around $100 (a bit more for the 466MHz generation). Icebooks are going for only a little more than that, with Ai…

iBook G3 Clamshell - approximate value? — #3

If you go by eBay prices, it's a nice deal actually. What makes it even sweeter is it doesn't get destroyed in shipping and you actually went in and looked at it. If it looks goo…

OS 9 and the PM 7300 Upgrade — #10

To get a faster system you need more RAM, an ATA/66 IDE card or a fast wide SCSI card and some decent HDs. Click to expand... "Need"? That's a bit excessive. Yes, more RAM. …

The later 604EV with full 1MB cache on the cpu card should give a g3 a good run for its money. I would think photoshop is limited by CPU cache along with bus speed bottlenecks. …

Lombard/Pismo Slot loading drive — #5

Dust bothers me. I have a cat sitting on my lap as I type. He likes to sniff at the exposed CD drive when it's spinning. This, too, bothers me.

I also would like to see this become an open source project, which it is not as of now. Click to expand... It is now. Blurry has bounced back and forth a bit between Sourcefor…

As for the games, I think they are fixed, which is too bad because I could see this as huge potential for other apps, not just games. Click to expand... That's exactly what I w…

yeah, I was using the camera on my PSP, and I remember it telling me it ran out of space. If I had a bigger memory card, I would be able to do a longer version. As for the games, …
