System 3 - Juliet Elysa? Damn... You should get System 6 and get more software for the Plus. A lot of things that will run on System 7 will on on System 6. 

plus is a great machine!

Highly likely I'd say... everything else Apple made in that era had cheap rubbish caps etc so I see no reason the Airport card would be an exception. lol

Aw, sorry to hear about the PowerBook. But congrats on finally finding a Plus! Especially a working one. I love mine, though I can't really do much on it due to a lack of softwa…

I had a few bad Macintosh Conquests lately.  From a local recycler I got a Powerbook 140 & a Macintosh IIcx which don't work.  The Powerbook is beyond help, the Macintosh I…

That is just plain weird. I've seen a lot of odd electronics, but never a chip-on-chip socket like that.

Oh butts. Oh well. Live and learn.......

Here's a pic of both.

Not necessarily, I have seen the same panels used in older Pentium era laptops. I think I have one or two lying around somewhere.

CE? I know since it is IDE, you can replace the IDE Drive in it and put in a CF with a CF-to-IDE Converter in it and watch it boot a lot faster and run for hours on battery! I hav…

They're so pretty though, I personally think the 2003 DP models are the most attractive computer interior ever made. I wish I still had my 1.8.

Could be a simple matter of protocol incompatibility, as there are a LOT of non-Apple routers on the market that Airport cards simply will not negotiate a connection with. Basicall…

Welp, can't sleep tonight as you can probably tell, and do not have to work until the evening, so I decided to stop procrastinating and remove the 2.0DP from my office as it was ta…

Hi! My friend has a iMac G3 with the id Powermac4,1 with a Airport Card. When he is trying to connect to his wireless network he gets the error message: There was a error joining …

Man, this thing is a godsend... for the past 15 years Ive been using a small multi-bit driver with a handle just narrow enough to slide down the sides of a compact handle... except…

I finally bought an 18" Torx screwdriver to work on compacts. Bit long but it definitely works.

So. In my new quests with vintage apple collecting, I seem to have acquired the most homely PB duo one has ever seen. The battery blew up long ago. The front filter on the LCD pane…

Update on the second Classic... took it apart yesterday after my last post, and glaringly obvious are what look to be the two filter caps busted open, which would have explained at…

Not gonna lie... I need some of this stuff!
