Earlier this year I was lucky enough to land myself a Pismo with a XLR8 G4 card inside. I took the card out and installed it in my existing Pismo, keeping the o…
I've been given a strawberry G3 iMac 400/DV that is nice and clean but won't power up. So far I've replaced PRAM battery and tried pushing the CUDA switch. On o…
I have no idea WHY the hell Apple decided for the Lisa they should use a capacitive keyboard. Everything before it did not use it and nothing after used it eith…
Man are these beautiful machines and I've often thought about getting one but they are too new for what I collect. Well, I couldn't resist any longer. My G4 Cub…
Rob from black hole, has me re-capping a stack of NeXT boards. I started and completed the worst looking one first, I said yeah you know that 33mhz 040 baord, j…
I took a punt on a used Ti Powerbook, model A1025. It looks and runs great - even the battery and PRAM appear to be functioning OK. Only minor quibble, it's an …
{move to Hacks & Dev; renamed} As subject. Either one, good working order. PM for details.
Did a search to see if this question had been asked before, but could not find it - so to the point: Have '93 Classic II with what might be an ailing 80 MB hard…
A picture is worth . . . View attachment 19772 It's almost time for the next five year tune-up for the pet IIfx. 1) re-cap 2) Internal Zip next to the FDD 3) CN…
This morning, I managed to get ten free compact Macs. Yes, ten free compact Macs. One of said Macs is an SE/30. Now, before you go and get jealous, let's review…
I've been pretty disgusted by the apparent siphoning off of all tech treasures from our local recycling monopoly, so haven't visited much recently. On a whim, I…
Woohoo, I just received 2 PowerBook G4's. One will be going to a young friend as her first computer! They are in remarkably good shape for their age. Very clean…
I have a nominally 25MHz 68040 CPU that I yanked from a 9x0. It had a cute little heat sink on it, and when I put it in my 33MHz 475 the socket had the attachme…
Is there a brand of transceiver for the PB 500 series that is better, as far as durability, reliability, performance, etc... than any other? I'm interested in o…
Has anyone else encountered a problem with getting Extension Manager 3.0.3 to work with System 7.1.x? Everytime I try to open the control panel is says not enou…
I caught a mac plus that had been hanging out on our local Craig's List for a few weeks. The guy who had it lived a few hours away in Champaign and it included …
The back room is finally cleared so now I'm getting my 512K tidied up and cleaned before I fire it up for the first time (hopefully not the last) and then sorti…
I've done quite a bit of Googling and I *think* I've figured the situation out, maybe, but perhaps someone here could help me confirm if I've got it right. My r…
Hi guys I have a slight problem and i was wondering if anyone else has suffered this. I bought a Classic off ebay earlier this year, it seemed perfectly fine. T…
Does anyone here use Netatalk with System 6, specifically via one of those Localtalk->Ethernet bridges? (The one I have is a Farallon EtherMac iPrint.) I…
I'm looking for a game but I don't know what it's called. It's a game where there are a bunch of levels with ladders that your guy must climb to get to the top.…
I have a 45 Mbps connection, and I'm hardwired to the modem with my 540c on System 7.1.1 & OT 1.2, but I seem to be maxing out at ~540 Kbps downstream. …
Hey guys I'm having a video issue with a macintosh SE logic board that I just bought off craigstlist. It came with a set of low density roms which I used to get…
Found this puppy at the local recycler. Or rather, my brother found it. Orchid Kelvin 64 MPEG VBA/VESA video card. 2MB memory and has an MPEG decoder on it. Not…
I was curious about this. The Plus originally said 1MB on the back and from what I am reading you had to cut a resistor in order to be able to upgrade the Plus …
Hi, which of the Macintosh models (apart from the 128, 512, 512e and Plus) worked without needing a fan?

Hi guys, I got this G3 AIO from one of the board members here and it worked beautifully for a bit. Today I was looking for Iomega Tools on Macintosh Garden usin…
Apparently there are extended diagnostic tests stored in ROM. What's the sequence to pull that up?

My original Mac was a Macintosh LC I've recently got one going up full speed and wondering if anybody has upgraded with a Speedster040, Presto Plus, or similar …
Digging through my boxes this weekend, turned up 8 of these SIMMS from a IIFX: The writing on the chips says HY514100J-70 Searching google makes me think these …
I know that there could already be similar topics but I'd like to resolve my doubts concerning moving data in and out of my Macintosh SE. Here's a list of ways …
Okay, so years ago I had a 512 that I tried to bring back to life and during the process, I had someone make a boot floppy (and a backup disk) for it. I never d…
I swear I remember seeing a globe in the UI back in the day, but darned if I can remember where it was used. Maybe an icon, or part of a control panel screen. T…
Since the 540 monitor I got is bunk, I was curious if the 540c can run in grayscale mode, and if so, how many shades of grey. Seems like that would be a be good…
I'm trying to put Leopard on my G4 cube with the intent of using it as a headless iTunes player but using the open firmware hack or Leopard Assist I just get a …
I've finally decided to use the 180 MHz QFP 603e I managed to source in a 5300ce instead of a 2300c. :approve: I remember tomlee59 posting some pics of the 5300…

HI all, Ive found myself away from home (due to renovations) with only my Powerbook 5300 at my disposal. While not my first choice of computers (I put the wrong…
Picked up a Pioneer laserdisc player and a few 12” laserdiscs. I was reading that it can be controlled by a Mac but haven’t gotten any further. When I have some…
Someone next town sells a broken iMac. I placed a bid. Even if it's broken beyond repair, some parts should be salvageable. :lol: The seller says it's a M5521 i…
Hi,a ll.. I read somewhere a long time ago, that the 68LC040 sits in a socket on the logic board, and might be possible to swap to a full 68RC040 with fpu and a…
This toy arrived today: it's 2/3rds toward the bottom - flaky web page, but fast ship great telephone ordering service. SPECIAL! 2 Port USB2 PCI Card for the Ma…
Hi all, this is my first post on 68kmla! I used to be a Mac user from the early 90s right through to 2011, but when my white MacBook gave up the ghost I ended u…
The Color Classic through LC575 all-in-ones all shared an edge connector that would slide into a slot in the case (attached to lots of ribbons to take signals t…
Anyone have the info for clocking the lc575? I got ahold of a 68040 at 33mhz. Wanting to see if I can clock the 575 at that.
I have a Power Mac 8500 that has had a dead hard drive for the last year. I finally got around to ordering a replacement hard drive on eBay (a whopping 700 MB 5…
