didn't think the LC series had much if any capabilities to upgrade, afterall, LC stand for Low Cost...I have no clue what happened to those upgrades, was going to get one for my II…

The PPC Upgrade fitted inside the PDS slot, the LC series have one PDS slot, so technically it could work, but since PDS slots are different in different kinds of machines, it was …

I wish I could find a PowerPC upgrade for my Mac Quadra 630... I don't use it much anymore, but I'd like it to have a little more horsepower. And no, I don't want to buy a first-ge…

Doesn't Sonnet have a PPC upgrade for LC's? If I remember correctly, it even has ethernet built-in.

An LC cannot be upgraded to PowerPC. Sonnet's 68040 "upgrade" is a motherboard replacement, I think.

The 50Mhz PPC Upgrade that Apple offered is compatible with the LC 475, i know this for a fact, i just do not know where to find it. ------------------ People aren't as dumb as…

Hehe, 40Mhz of raw power! Makes my Yosemite G3/400 look pathetic! Anyway, all of the first four LC series and the Performa 475, 476, and the Quadra 605 (damn, what was apple th…

There was an Apple and a Daystar upgrade for the 68LC040 Macs. The Apple version was called the "Macintosh Processor Upgrade." It has a Power PC 601 which will double the speed of…

Too bad there were few made and Daystar is out of business. Maybe you can find a PowerCard on eBay at an inflated price.

I think the metallic powerbooks you're referring to, used adhesive metallic paper attached to the existing panels. I suppose that if someone had enough skill in plastic fabrication…

Don't forget that Apple may use some of this metal for shielding against hazardous emissions (for you and the computer) . . . in their recent translucent products, shielding is tak…

if someone can tell me how to attach a picture to my replies I can show you what I mean, Micha

To SpiffyGuyC: Your claim that Apple has found a way to make the translucent plastic work as shielding is wrong. In the iBook there are sheets of metal in the casing to work as sh…

Assuming you have a PCI slot free, just drop in a fan card (PCI slot fan) or a slot covering fan (that mounts on the slots cover plate) that will cool the whole motherboard. They'r…

IS there such a thing? Wow, i never heard of them, do you know where i can get them? ------------------ People aren't as dumb as you think. Wait, what was I thinking, 90% of the…

I started a thread about just that subject a while back. it's still in this form, and I believe that somebody did do it, although I'm too lazy to go and check. -Ruddigger

I'm getting a new Apple Pro Keyboard soon, and after I figure out how to wire a power button into it, I'm gonna put lights in my old USB keyboard... lemme know how you go, and I wi…
