Yes, the hdd is on the sled. But I resolved the issue by breaking off the plastic tab. So the front bezel is back on, hooked on by the remaining plastic tab on the left side. No…

Nicely done! A 1MB cache for a 6/7/8100 is my parts "Eleanor"

You'll pay through the nose at Wegener. No offense to them - it's the same at most of the retails webstores for old parts. Best to post a want ad in the Trading Post here.

Tiger can run on it, even if it only has a 250mhz G3 and 160mb RAM. It still can run on Kangas.

As far as I know, the memory check can't be turned off in the Memory Control Panel on a Quadra. I seem to recall that it requires a PPC and MacOS8 — possibly 8.5 or 8.6. It require…

Check with www.ifixit.com. They are one other good source for help on PB1400 laptops. 73s de Phreakout. :rambo:

The eMac 9.2.2 disc is a good one. The version I have has Mac OS ROM 10.1.1, which is one of the highest versions. I don't think any bootable, 9.2.2 install discs have the higher 1…

For the records: A 9.2.2 CD bundled with a later G4 worked quite well. It´s still verry strange to me, but the bought 9.1 refuses to boot, but a 9.2.2 works (even if it was made fo…

Is the HDD on the sled? If it is, try putting it in without the sled. It might be an odd-dimensions hard drive, therefore it sticks out a bit. Not every HDD was made to fit into…

Classic - Do you have a link for downloading the WannaBe browser? I'd like to give that a try if it would keep other content from trying to load... I wanted to try it with the 1400…

Classic - I found the download site for WannaBe, so I got that ok. Thanks! Will give it a try.

No, Strawberries came out with the other fruit colors in 2 batches (tray & slot loaders), and Rubies came out with Indigos came but they were more translucent. Tow-may-to,…

If the G4 is a dual CPU machine then yes, you got a good deal. I dislike iMacs so my view is that you wasted money on it.

I've forgotten the difference between the 64K ROMs. It was something very minor to do with the ROM debugger IIR (we were hoping for a fix for >512K of RAM of course). Cli…

Very nice - but I thought Strawberries were tray loaders and Ruby's were slot loaders.

I got one of these for my 7300 back in the day. They really do make a difference and they did indeed cost a fortune when they were new. For $5 it's a great deal - and a cool colle…

Turns out that the iMac G5 is 1.8GHz/1GB RAM/160GB HD/CD-RW with a 128MB Radeon 9600 graphics card and Leopard Server. The G4 was 933MHz/512MB/60GB/Combo Drive So sadly these are…

My browser preference is obvious but WannaBe works very well on the 1400 as a text browser. Really, though, my 1400 got much more useful when I put a G3 and RAM Doubler on it. …

There was a third party adapter to use Atari joysticks on an Apple II. Good luck finding one, though! At the time, Apple joysticks were as common and cheap as the Atari ones, so th…

Your 9.1 CD is probably a few months older than your G4, and it lacks some driver needed to boot the Mac. Similarly, my new Mini came with Leopard, but it won't boot from a 10.5.0 …

Mr T, it's quite likely the motherboard in your Mac is the original, though upgraded to 512K. The original boards were shipped in 128Ks even after the Fat Mac 512K was introduced. …

wicked.

The iMac sounds good, but I reckon that you should offer less for the 933Mhz G4 (Quicksilver?). A dualie G4 is still good for "everyday" use but a single G4 933Mhz won't cut it, o…
