Shit, if this is true then it's no wonder the Newton never caught on.

I don't think available software was the main problem for the early Newton. In fact, I …
Just so you know, from a message sent to the NewtonTalk mailing list on June 14th:
Dear Newton Users,
I'm pleased to announced that ATA Support can now be downloaded in a

Folks,
I have the same problem as Didius, but different.
Couple of months ago, I rescued a 'dead' iBook (G3/300) at an AUSOM meeting, I was told by the person that gave it to me,…
Really?
That is AMAZING. It's like the iPhone but even worse. I'd love to see some scans of this secret contract bullshit.
Shit, if this is true then it's no wonder the Newton ne…

If it's spitting out factory-pressed DVDs (I'm taking your "all DVDs" literally), then your drive is likely toast. Dual-laser drives use an IR laser for CDs, and a red one for DVDs…
It was a very good deal. My Pismo is so much brighter now! It also was becoming a bit pink in the left corner which was a sign that it maybe wouldn't have lasted a whole lot long…

Well done -- congratulations! As you noted, it's not so much hard as it is tedious, with lots of little steps along the way. But it's well worth doing, given that a $10 tube can re…
SUCCESS! It was a tricky thing to do, but everything worked fine. I agree that you should work slowly and carefully. I managed to not break either bulb (old & new).
The…

If you have trouble starting it up in the future, try the reset button on the back. I've had to prod that a couple of times to get my Lombard to wake up.
Good info there tomlee59. I got two hours of solid websurfing out of my $20 as-is Lombard battery last night on my first test run, but it went dead with no warning and the battery…
Am trying to revive a dead 2400c/180 in the next week or three.
As detailed on this page, among a handful of others in English, there are some dozen or more fuses in the innards o…
Just work slowly and carefully, and you'll be fine. Never force anything, don't bend the tube. It's not super-fragile, but do be careful. It can actually flex a bit, so no need to …
the battery needs to be fully charged, then discharged to shutdown, a couple of times.

I have done this once, but I'll try it a couple more times. It seems …

Bunsen was right! I unplugged my batteries (both were put in the machine) and plugged the PRAM battery back, left it overnight, and the thing powers up without the battery being un…
With most lithium-ion packs, the fuel gauge software is adaptive. It needs a training period to get properly calibrated for a given set of cells. During that training period, the b…
It appears that Battery Reset is not compatible with Pismos unfortunately, but good try.
I wish I could just figure out what causes the mAh number to go up and do it.

Lucky, you got the cool iMac where it was user serviceable.

Yup, mine's the same revision model. I was a bit bummed to find out only weeks after I purchased…
You guys don't understand how sexy the Disk II controller is AND THE DISK DRIVE II. Just thinking about them or using them make my head swim so hard I lose total balance, GS with D…
