Then I assume a mainboard swap took place. All this time I was going on the model # listed on the case.

I'd say you have a Gigabit Ethernet G4/400. And they're not exactly rare - it was the low cost, "no frills" version of the Gigabit G4, for people who couldn't afford/didn't need d…

I'm currently trying to resolve the question of whether I actually have a gigabit ethernet G4, rather than an original sawtooth. Here is what I have found: (1) The label on the b…

From somebody who visited one large city in a country you seem to know everything about it Bunsen. Both India and China have a huge percentage of people without a pot to piss in, j…

I have a PowerBook 1400, and sometimes, when I plug it in to AC power, it doesn't recognise that I have done so! It gets a draw from the adapter only about 75% of the time, and the…

Well, I am in Canada and have done this with an eMate battery pack. You would be best getting some tabbed NiMh AA cells, and following the excellent instructions online at http://w…

I'm searching for someone in Canada that can help rebuilt battery for those 2 models of Newton. Anyone?

The didks look like this and we get this when we try and format. { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", "lightb…

You know, I'm thinking of how much less waste there would be if we simply upgraded wisely. Swapping mainboards and hard drives instead of replacing the entire enclosure. It would…

Thanks for the info. I think ill look into it more after iv got my iMac.

I cannot speak for the video angle, but the only real advantage to the IIe is expansion. If you don't need expansion, you'll probably be happier with a IIc+. Here's why: - The I…

Sidestepping the issue that Quadraman and Bunsen are so angry about (for the record, I'm with Bunsen, but I'll say no more but that) If Contiki gets ported to that, I am getting o…
