The RAM chips on the motherboard are two rows of 8 chips. they're at the opposite end of the motherboard from the connectors

Have you tried it without the Y cable attached? When I first had a IIe card I didn't have the cable and I believe without the cable it dropped me into the startup screen with a bas…

Sage iMac was my favorite iMac. I loved the color.

It's Spring Break so I'm back in town at my parents' house. I got out the Power Mac 9500 to try putting a good PRAM battery in. The donor was the blue & white G3 (which is …

That's what I thought too, but here is his site: http://homepage.mac.com/cliff_huston/.public/Offering/Early_Apple.html

Some of it is just the kids, who are just going to be constitutionally different that the 20-, 30- and 40-somethings among us. You youngsters are going to find that things are that…

I gave an original Bondi to my friend for his birthday a few years ago. It was his first-ever Mac. I have wondered if they'll ever be collectible, though.

quadraman, yes it does.

Very nice! I saw one at a thrift store the other day for $50. $5 is definitly a good deal!

Does that wallpaper come with OS X?

It is an Apple 5.25 drive. It's a bit dirty, so I'll try to clean it up and see if I can clean the "read" head(s). I'm thinking that I might be able to find an II share ware prog…

Dynamite! An LC475 works fine too! :lc: We must be on the same wavelength, I considered requesting the stuck out tongue, but your animated one is fab! Just one or two suggestio…

Very nice! And wow at the size of that ram upgrade board.

Yes, I'm really blind. Apparently I made a copy of the site I am working on to the wrong location. The image file I was looking for was there....

I've got a Rev. A, I'm not sure of the production date though. I preordered it two months in advance from MacMall, it was my first new computer. I do think in another 10-15 years i…

What I was attempting to do was resize an image to make it more suitable for a web page. iResize can resize the file, but when the resized file was saved it did not show in the fi…

I have a Rev A. Built Sept 8 I think 1999. Niiiiiiice Condition.

WOW! That's great! I'm glad it turned out that you have the original mobo... congrats!

Heck, it put a huge smile on my face when I first saw it! It was actually set up on the guy's desk, next to his telly - I assumed that like the telly, it was set up for him to use,…

Top score LCGuy - and in your home town! Must have put a rather large smile on your face when it fired up without issue. What speed is it? JB

Ever since they came out, I've had a theory that the original Rev. A Bondi iMac would one day be a sought-after collector's item, up there with the Lisa and the original Macintosh.…

That is a really nice upgrade but the RAM upgrade has 4 banks of 256k so it should show up as 1mb. I'm wondering why you're seeing only 512k? Might there be a problem with the upg…

Seems like the original series of CRT iMacs turned Apple around when they came out. For some time the used machines were the cheapest G3 you could find making them popular untill f…

I'm almost in total disbelief right now. Went to the tip shop today. We haven't been going as frequently since its been kinda lame over the past few months. So we went there today…
