uh.. no leopard. people are reporting video problems with the GFX card in these. So tiger it will be. As far as optical drives... Well, the CD/CD-RW functions work I think the…

Very nice price for a decent machine. I remember lusting over these in computer shops several years ago! The CRTs in the eMacs are very crisp IIRC. Getting Leopard on it should…

That's what I use as my main system... mostly for graphics and audio. Very nice for $130. ISTR having some issues with the optical drive at first, but they went away with one of th…

I've got a 700MHz eMac. It is a good system. I don't use it much any more since though. I upgraded and Hard Drive and DVD drive in mine, they are quite a pain to get you. B sure t…

I am picking up an eMac 700Mhz off of Craigslist for $130. it was $135, but since I am the only one serious about it, and am picking it up today, he knocked off $5. specs: eMa…

Kudos to you for putting your older machines back on Freecycle and sharing the wealth! Click to expand... Thanks. I have been very lucky with Freecycle over the past couple of…

Ooh, will they do T-shirts for the iPhone launch too? I didn't meet any Mac enthusiasts though, I'm a bit too too shy to start talking to any of the other people there! They'd prob…

I actually turned up at about 6.30pm because I got held up in traffic, but there was still a queue to get in! I was pretty lucky because the T-shirts ran out very shortly after I e…

I got a Leopard T-shirt too in Glasgow! I was lucky as they ran out very shortly after I went in the door. There was actually a queue down Buchanan Street when I arrived and the st…

I think it's funny (the BSoD thing, that is). It harkens back to Apple's evangelist past, and it shows that even a major corporation can have a sense of humor. I'm sure that in 1…

Hahah, an installfest. Anyway, looks like a sweet time...i wish i could've gone to a Leopard party..but y'know, i live in the middle of nowhere, have no car, and...well...yeah.…

I got the G3 400 up and running. Since I made out so well on this deal I think it will go back up on Freecycle along with my AIO G3 and another BW 400 I have. I'll definitely kee…

Here's an update... I cracked it open... 1 of the IC's was cocked a pretty good bit out of its socket. Even when I pushed it in and checked the rest of them, STILL no joy. I left i…

Thanks for all the replies. For now they're sitting around until I can decide what to do with them. I guess I'll dig out my old ethernet card and use it for SSH or something ...

MagSafe is indeed wonderful. I wish more portable devices had something similar. That said, the pre-MagSafe connectors still seem underdesigned for no particularly sane reason (ot…

Good score! I would love to have an iMac g3 or an iBook g3 to play with. All these posts about iBook g3s are killing me. THE CLAMSHELLS ARE SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

The BSoD thing is almost as good as Steve calling it Winders during a keynote. The only Apple shirt I have is from the 12 Oaks Apple Store opening in Novi, Michigan. I was #31 …

I like the BSoD thing.

Wooo! Just got back from the Apple Store and I got a Leopard T-shirt! So even though I can't have Leopard, I've still got the T-shirt! My G3 cried when it saw the T-shirt from t…

Glad you got it working.

Until it catches fire...one thing that i'm going to be incredibly paranoid about when i get my MacBook (no, i'm not dissing MacBooks...i'm going to OWN one in a month or so!)

Yes, it's surprising how many 'books (and windows laptops) have been afflicted with this same problem. I can't believe that, with such a long history of failures, laptop manufactur…

i just got a bondi blue G3 imac. It has 192mb of RAM and a 4gb HD. Running OsX 10.2. The side door is missing, but the case is in nice condition. Came with Apple USB keyboard a…
