5300 Brand New Sealed In Box — #13
5300's are good machines.
I second the idea of upgrading the LCD to an active matrix one. I would like to find one and do this to mine.
They are so bloody cute. Then again so was…

So what about the famous Apple ][ series? — #12
It is a separate large beige part - looks like a brick. You can see one in the picture of this auction:

No, I don't have a power supply...
Would I be looking for something like this?

Do you have a power supply? Looks as if that is not included in the auction.

All you need to hook it up to a regular TV is a composite video cable (the yellow RCA-type video cable). You probably have one of these laying around somewhere but if you don't you…

Hi,
Okay, I just now bought this Apple IIc on eBay:

It was listed as 'un…

Okay, great! Thanks!
I've just been outbid on a Macintosh Plus that I was going for on eBay, so I decided to go for an Apple IIc instead. (I'm still going for a Plus, of course,…
PB1400 G3 — #3
No, doesn't make a lot of sense as beachycove said. From the looks of eBay US, you can get a Pismo 500MHz for around $250-300.
PB1400 G3 — #2
No, it is not worth it, if worth is calculated in terms of cold, rational thought. You can buy a Pismo for $200.
MacOS 8.6 on "Sawtooth" G4 — #54
Well I finally tried booting my Sawtooth in 8.6 using Almeath's file which I burned to CD. Since my sawtooth had a bootrom of 4.2.8f1, I assumed that 8.6 booting was no longer poss…

That's fixable, Scott. Strip down the drive, clean it and relubricate it. If that fails (whic…

Documentation for the II family was incredible. The Red Book told you almost everything about how the computer worked -- the only other thing that you needed was the 6502 manual.

As others have said, the Apple II is and always was a hobbyist system. In fact, the Apple II series used to come with a little booklet entitled "A Touch of AppleSoft BASIC" which e…
Apple IIe Disk Controllers — #3
I found my Liron card and UniDisk drive (which has a ton of problems with ejecting disks). I'm going to set them aside as a backup since I found my IIe doesn't really sit comfortab…

Luddite is correct, they are much more of a hobbiest system. They are great to program on because they include both BASIC and the mini-assembler, and the limited resources don't o…
Powerbook 500 with PowerPC — #8
wow! the Powerbook 500 was really built well.

But I always had a problem with the batteries sliding out. Had to use a giant rubberband to keep them in!

It's not the easiest thing getting a 3.5" drive hooked to an IIe. There's a page that lists some of the different compatibility notes for various types of Apple drives here:

I have 3 model IIgs systems, those are the only II's I have and probably the only model I want (turned down a free local II+ a few years back).

Writing your own programs is what makes the Apple II great in my opinion. It's much more of a hobbyist platform than the Mac.

There are a few different PowerPC upgrades out there for the 500 series. I think you must have a unit with the Apple card; when you shipped your 5xx to Apple to have the PowerPC d…

The upgrade cards themselves are very rare and probably mostly lurk inside long-forgotten 500 series PowerBooks. I'm still blown away by how cheaply you got it!
