It was probably originally made for an early Mac. The floppy port was the only way to connect a hard drive pre- SCSI.

Nice. Is it a 117mhz or 133mhz? Click to expand... I thought it said 117mhz, but I'd have to check to be sure. Since I already have a couple SCSI Zip drives laying around, I'…

actually I made a mistake, the harddrive does not connect to the SCSI port, it connects to the floppy port!! Just like an HD SC20. I thought nobody else had made floppy drive hard…

That happpens to me a lot, butnotin the past week.

BTW, Tom, I've been getting server non-response errors nearly every time I click a link within the forums. Just FYI. Click to expand... I haven't been having any problems with …

OS 9.1 is possible, but takes some hoodwinking of the NuBus architecture, Click to expand... What do you mean? I installed 9.1 on my 1400, and it just installed, no problems at…

There may be some main bus <-> PCI bus timing issues that make running at 66 MHz more sensible. I'm no expert, but I would think it would be a simple question to ans…

With no floppy drive or Ethernet port to speak of (at least as far as I can tell), and that strange (25-pin?) SCSI port, I'm sorta stuck at the moment. Click to expand... get y…

yep... teh onboard on the 6100 goes up to 832 x 624 @ 256 colors. dooes it has any extras like a dos card or HV card?

Nah, the onboard can handle more than that

The 1400s are fine machines, especially if they are the later 'extended' models. Max. notional RAM is 64MB, which is a kindness to them, and allows the most compatible OS, 8.6, to…

i have one and i love it!!!only problem is tht the screen is broken

I already have the spec sheet, Quadraman. I had to find it on an alternate website, however, as the links on Freescale transfer to Tundra Semiconductor (the now-owner of the PCI/me…

Probably the easiest way to transfer applications would be a serial cable between 2 Macs. Will be really slow though :-\

Nice. Is it a 117mhz or 133mhz?

Nice find, the PowerBook 1400s are great machines to mess about with. One of the best upgrades I can recommend is RAM - I upped mine from 16MB to 40MB with a 24MB expansion card an…

u gonna frame the me cd as the height of stupidity out of redmond? Click to expand... I always thought that distinction went to BOB BTW, Tom, I've been getting server non-r…

You can set the multiplier of the PCI bus independently, so you can change the timing when you change the bus clock. In fact, you can change the bus clock, PCI clock, and CPU mult…

Sweet!

Virtual PC actually. That and to finish off the collection of Windows install CDs from a while back.

Hey, no problem. The time I didn't spend here I managed to source up a Windows ME CD, so that kept me entertained for a while. Click to expand... Frisbee? [] ]'> Cl…

My G3MT runs on an 83MHz bus, and yes, the processor is lightly overclocked as a result (416MHz instead of 400). I use a socket 7 heatsink with a little fan on it. My G3DT runs on …
