This is good info on powerbooks. I have a 150 and soon I'm going to have a 145b and some 100s that I think just need an os. I want to know how hard it is to put a new hard drive in…

Schools should lease computers instead of buy them so when they are done with them they go back to whoever they got them from and get sold off to people who can use them instead of…

Post is gone, wonder if somebody picked it up?

I had another go at the cables in the PB145 tonight, paying particular attention to the display cable that connects to the inverter board, adjacent to the keyboard cables exposed w…

$500.00CAD working. I did not realize how big they were. Shipping would be something too.

So uh... did you ask how much for one of the Lisa's?

13 Lisas?!?!? That's insane!

Nice haul and some great Powerbook info in this thread.

The cables have been checked, and the contacts lightly cleaned, and there is happily a considerably better display now. There remains some flickering, but no really bad multi-colou…

It's really up to luddite (or whoever ends up hosting it this year) to decide what they want to do for a website. I have, however, started throwing a few ideas around as far as des…

Ghosting and "messing up" could be the result of a bad cable or bad video controller. Fading in and out could be a failing backlight or inverter... I'd check the cables first, of…

Its been working fine for a few days now. I don't know what happened.

Hello all, I do realize it is a bit early to be asking, But when do we plan to begin creating next years page? And do we have the space and bandwidth for it? -funkytoad
