Here's a link to a site still selling the replacement cases. $449 is certainly an optimistic starting price on that auction. *shrug* People are funny enough that I wouldn't bet ag…

Wow! That's a good price! Do you leave all of your systems setup and plugged in? If not, I wouldn't bother leaving a battery in them anyway. I've lost several computers to expl…

Since I needed a bunch I decided to go with a bulk purchase and managed to find 10 packs for $28 shipped. Nearly every beige Powermac and Quadra I have thinks it's 1956. 8-o

PowerLogix made some replacement G4 cube cases that came in were black, white and I believe silver.

When I put the 1ghz G4 in my 7500 it wouldn't power up at first. It's a good thing I got an instruction manual because in the manual it says when you remove the old CPU you have to…

I'm surprised Ericsson didn't sue for trademark infringement.

HaHa, i thought you were talking about some Chinese iPhone knock off, i was very surprised to see a home phone like thing when i looked it up on google. i have never heard of that …

Ah, good. 9.2.2 is needed for the last update to the ATi drivers so I just hoped it could be done. I've also heard that 9.2.x is faster than 9.1. So now I just have to get OS9Helpe…

Cool, I didn't realize that there was an easy install version of ubuntu for PPCs! AFAIKnew, they all required foolin' around waaay more than I wanted to do. Will it run on a 6500/G…

I vote 9.1 due to it being mac and there is classilla for web surfing. I did try Ubuntu on a Dell but the disk would not load, and Kubuntu worked but it sucked. I really did not …

I've got pix on my camera, but I've misplaced my card reader and USB cable for my camera. And I have no idea how or where to upload them to the 'net anyway As to the model number…

I like Kubuntu on my Clamshell, it gave the iBook new life, albeit being a bit buggered up

Pics or it did not happen Wait which model number? I want to look it up!

Folks, Went to an AUSOM members-only swap meet on the weekend, didn't pick up a much mac stuff, a couple of Pismo CD and DVD drive units, a couple of games, stuff, boxes of stuff,…

I've just had a message from the person I bought the PAL Encoder card from. He says's he's found the paperwork for the Encoder card and is posting it on. Will add to the thread w…

When I first tried to power it up the PS would only click and the PS fan would make a feeble attempt to run. Thought I had been screwed with a DOA, but after some head scratching …

Can you temporarily install an internal ethernet network card and see if that will establish a connection online? If it does work, chances are it could be the ethernet port on the…

Hi, me again. We have a Quicksilver G4 at my school, and I've recently set it up as a browsing machine. If I'm correct, its a 933 MHz Model with 128 MB RAM, not 100% sure on the H…

Thanks for the replies, guys. The iBook seems to work when it wants, but so far its doing what I've asked it to do, I just wish it would stop doing these random "bombs". I might co…

My 9500 and 9600 both have Sonnet G4/800 cards and work just fine in 9.2.2. Also have a G3/450 in an 8600/200 that works fine in both 9.1 and 9.2.2.

Picked up a 9600 G4/800 today, 512 MB Ram, a 4 GB SCSI drive and a 10 GB IDE drive driven off an IDE/USB/Firewire card. Radeon 7000 Video card and the usual floppy and CD drives. …

Sounds complicated. There must be another way. I've read something that said you need to do a clean install, but I can't figure out how to do that. Someone said to hold down Opt…

It may have been a universal install; it appears as if the people who installed the software were from Tiger Foods. :?: They could have just made a universal set of floppies. If…

I tried Ubuntu a couple of times on my iBook and iMac over the years. It's been a while but I think I had video problems with both (the iMac for sure). Kubuntu especially was very …
