I'm surprised to hear that alcohol worked -- that's a bit counterintuitive. I've always used WD-40 as a solvent (NOT as a lube here). It works a treat, as the saying goes. Wipe eve…

Yeah, some of the statistics PHPbb3 has are pretty interesting.
As an example, I've been here since the start of this iteration of the board, and indeed, as of today I've been on t…

Sony MP-F75W-02G is another one. There are probably other model numbers out there too. AFAIK, the spring in a generic floppy drive is slightly different. And fiddling with such pro…

As far as I know, vintage Asante kit doesn't work at all with modern networking equipment. You need a 10 Mbps hub (very cheap) in between your DSL modem and your Quadra 605.
I don't know if it's a case of too many contestants or too few voters, but we seem to have ended up with no less than five RetroChallengers in the top three slots! Without further …
The head was loose to. So I ironed it, and I fastended the spring. And it looked good and "closed", but it didn't work
So I must buy Sony MP-F75W-01G, Sony MP-F75W-11G or Sony …

You won't be able to get that read/write head to come back down again. I know because I accidently did the same to one of my drives. Any Auto-Inject Sony SuperDrive mechanism will …

I'm having trouble getting my Quadra 605 connected to the internet through my LAN and DSL modem.
The DSL modem is a Motorola Netopia 3347. The DSL connection is through Qwest.

My TAM arrived today - was quicker than I thought it'd be!
First thing I did when I pulled it out of the box was switch over the voltage on the base unit, set it up then took an i…
I get a feeling it's magnetic based on what was mentioned. I tried the analog board in another Classic with a different hard drive (I've got a non-Apple ProDrive LPS in the Classic…
