PowerBook 150!!! — #5

Good to hear that its got a RAM upgrade - the main thing like I said, is that it has the right angle adaptor, which allows you to use Duo RAM. That 4GB hard drive *should* work - I…

PowerBook 150!!! — #3

Not bad. I hope for your sake the RAM has been upgraded - even though they use Duo RAM (which if you can find a Duo, is easy enough to find), they require a special right angle …

Help! I think my SE/SE30 power supply is dead! — #3

Okay. I've checked the AC power cord and I'm getting power from the wall. About 120.2VAC. So I will rule that part out. I've went ahead and pulled the power supply unit and the…

SE/30 - blown ADP ports — #7

Ortencia, You'll need to open up the case and remove the "mobo", aka Logic Board in Apple Computer terms. This is the circuit board on the very bottom of the SE/30. Once the log…

The PDS slot for the IIci and the LC PDS slot are two completely different interfaces, unfortunately. The Presto was also only made for the LC series.

I have a Presto 040 that came with an LC computer I bought. Were there two physically different cards for the LC and II series Macs? Or was it just one card, but had an adapter f…
