Uh, Bondis were only available as either Rev. A or B.. There was no Bondi Rev. C or D, only Blueberry. Basically, it went like this:
Rev. A and B only got Bondi. As Henry Ford wou…
Yeah, there were indigo and Bondi, and Blueberry. The blueberries were even down to 350mhz without firewire ports, The Bondi's went up to 333mhz (Rev D). I have a Rev A. iMac Bondi…

Ummm...there were CPU upgrades for MDD/Xserve

That's the Sonnet one and I am sure there was another I saw a while bac…

In the States, it is also more common to see the LC versions show up on the market. While I feel this is from the greater number of LCs sold to schools, it could also be that some …
Oh, and back on topic:
If you are going to have to rewrite your theme anyway, why waste your time with phpBB? You would be better off just making your current forum an archive and…

That's a really good writeup on the LC series, Scott, thanks for that.In Australia at least though, the LC475/575/630 were sold directly to consumers.

Yeah, …
I remember the 580, in fact I have two of them here. Apple ditched the more expensive Trinitron monitor and SCSI drive from the 575 to make the 580 more attractive to school budget…

Are you planning on actually using it for anything? If so, then go for the Indigo simply because its RAM is cheaper and easier to find, faster and a little nicer looking IMO. It'…

There is no point to downclocking the CPU - the G3 upgrade is independant of the existing CPU itself (that is, it is not used), nor are you going to "cook" the existing 601 CPU (it…
Hmmm... That's not going to be easy unless you have an 8100/80 to look at. The multiplier on the 100 and 110 MHz machines is three, so if you change the oscillator to 40 MHz, the C…
Calling all experts...
Has anyone of you ever done this or have any inside info on how to do it?
What I would like to do to the above mentioned machines is:
1. Install 40 MHz os…

How to test the power supply:
1. Turn on the Mac IIfx.
2. Set your volt meter to 20V range DC
3. Touch the black probe to a pin of the power supply connector that is connecte…

All models with "LC" in their name were popular in schools. In fact, the LC line became education-only after some time. I believe the original LCIII (not LCIII+) was the last LC so…
I finally found a copy of Cliff Joyce's masterpiece "Calculator Construction Set" thanks to waynes.com. I haven't tried it yet (I really don't want to unshrinkwrap this rarity!) bu…

Ok got some testing done, not good news.
1. AfterMAc's drive is good (tested on my SE), but the IIfx just gives me a disk with an X when I plug it in and try to boot from a disk (…
The 68060 didn't scale well, either. The fastest versions lack the MMU, FPU, or both. Too many transistors for a wafer that size back then. The fastest 060's required separate chip…
For anyone interested here's a link to a Lemswap post for a free 128K Mac, upgraded to a 512K.
