Can we just skip to the end, where a moderator locks this thread while failing at pretending to care what the actual forum members think?

awesome

I booted your IIfx from an external hard drive without a terminator at all Tempest. I think it depends a little on your drive too. Terminators are tricky and unpredictable as to …

I updated them. After being put right next to each other, they were kind of staggered. Now they should line up nicely: <-- Vertically adjusted. (You may h…

I just vacuumed the psu fan without even opening it and the case fan while I was at it, and the G4 is now quieter than it has ever been!

:lisa2: AWESOME.

I received a reply from Otherworld Computing (on a Saturday, no less!). I'm posting it in its entirety for future reference... PowerPC 750FX and 750GX upgrades support a fea…

Trash80, Having the exact same post made by 10 different people and all of them being responded to with basically the same reply adds to the clutter more than one big post contain…

Hmmm. Well if you intend to sell the 128K, then yes for some collectors, sockets upset the authenticity. The reality is, it should have had sockets, but Jobs nixed it. Any one of u…

I don't see that as a problem, in the old days it was: RTFM! Here, it's: RTFThread! If there are two or three snippets you really NEED to add to your post for context, go ahead, y…

They've been added. I've cut down the list shown on the posting page a little bit (to tidy things up), so those (and a few of the older ones) can be added by clicking the "View mor…

The thing is, though, that if nested quotes is the issue, how is someone supposed to easily follow the flow of the conversation? If I quote a message that replies to a prior messag…

I want all these new smilies added to the official list. :approve:

sounds like the fan, so yea try blowing it out, and worst case you can replace the fan fairly easily

You will need the Newton Interconnect Dongle whatever cable you use (though there were very rare ones, I seem to recall, that had the dongle built-in). I do, however, have the cabl…

I've seen stock 512k boards for as low as $50 so for all the work of socketing the chips on a 128k board plus the cost of the sockets and new chips it's better just to buy the whol…

I've ignored the war room discussion about this issue, so I was just as surprised as anyone else. That being said, I didn't have any problem at all quoting something for context in…

and a lot more work! I would definitely put a socket in for any chip I removed, but it's a big job to do it unnecessarily for all of them, and might cause more problems than it's …

Most EDO will work, but it's not used on any of the x500 or x600 motherboards from Apple. The reason that the speed matters is that there were plenty of models which drove the mem…

You might as well remove all the chips and put in some good sockets. You can then choose between having 128k of memory with 64k x 1 chips or 512k with 256k x 1. It was a common upg…

Quadra 605 with an APD perched on top would be my suggestion! [] ]'> Great stuff, comrade! [] ]'>
