Welcome to the eMac Club! I own a 700 mhz one and they rock. slightly loud and heavy but nice nonetheless. I am not sure if this model is one of those that has the leaky caps but w…

Nope! http://lowendmac.com/orchard/06/0912.html Pretty neat!

Today I drove about 75 kilometers to pick up a eMac listed on Kijiji for $160CAD. Its pretty sweet. Although it only had OS X 10.2 installed with 128MB ram, I put in a 256MB stick …

There was no Batt in it, also when it stopped working it was on then it went off, I am working on rigging an atx power Brick on it

The Powermac G5 is no where near obsolete... I use my PMG5 more than I use my new Mac mini... it is snappier than the mini... Don't get me wrong the mini is great but I prefer t…

One more note: your Centris 650 will not always cause a small spark when you plug it in even if it's working. This depends on several things like humidity, how long it's been unp…

The Centris 650 **DOES** have a battery on the motherboard. You just need to look more closely. Some older Macs will turn on if this battery is dead, some will NOT. So it's a go…

The tower model G5s didn't have the same issues with the exploding capacitors, did it? If new RAM doesn't fix it, you might want to take a look at the caps, particularly those in t…

Anybody here seen one of these in person, or actually own(ed) one? Just curious.

There are amateurs who do try to re-cell LiIon batteries, but the success rate is poor, and what they risk is real and serious injury. As well as potential explosion, with effects …

I waited to long and missed out on them. However I did acquire a iMac 400mhz DVD. Now I have two identical machines.

I have a iBook G3 Snow and I would like to know if I could recell it easily and within $40? If not I might as well just buy a new in package battery off eBay for $40. agg23 Cli…

In short, there are reasons the PowerMac G5 has a reputation of being something of a lemon. It is. Click to expand... Only the water cooled G5s had huge problems. The other G5s…

Personally I think the whole idea of a 3D world as a productivity environment is silly anyway. It's the sort of thing that looks totally awesome in fiction but in reality, well... …

Building stuff like you describe is uh ... non-trivial. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VRML

I use HFVExplorer here too, but only to get files in and out of hfv images for SheepShaver. I've never used it on actual HFS hard disks. But if it works, then you can stick to what…

When a CRT is fired up after being off for a long time, there is often a sizzling or crackling sound sort of like it is taking a deep breath. It is caused by the inside of the tube…

Thanks for the help. I don't have the Mac or its drive with me right now, but I'll double check the connector when I get the drive. I see several Adaptec 50-pin SCSI cards on ebay …

My iMac G5 of the same gen as your PowerMac using the same proc had this problem. It turned out to be RAM Click to expand... Yeah. I suppose the real thrust of my post would be…
