Scooped up the last of the white Macbooks. Has 2gb RAM and 250gb hard drive for $100 but going in is 16gb, 2tb Seagate Firecuda SSHD and higher capacity battery from OWC. They're good with High Sierra without hacks, believe it or not. Going to run with this setup until prices come down on a non...

So does anyone know at what speed a single G3 begins to outperform the dual 604e's on this card? 

This was a high end card back in the day that went toe to toe against Number Nine's Imagine 128 for Mac. It wasn't as good as an ATi Rage for gaming, since it only provided acceleration at very high resolutions, but came with a massive software bundle. Paid $40 for it. I thought the software...

Are there any? 

I conquested an Asante MacCon during my "forced absence" by the mods, so it's a not very recent. I managed to score it for only $85 as opposed to the close to $200 that they normally go for these days. I saw that price and couldn't let it pass.

Scored this for a good price even if the Hyperdrive doesn't work or is missing. It powers on, but I haven't had a chance to crack the case yet. It's heavier than my other 128k/512k machines so no reason to assume there isn't a hard drive in there. Also came with a carry bag, keyboard/mouse...

I have the original graphite Airport base and wondered if anyone has upgraded the internal card to anything better than an Orinoco Gold card? Is there anything that supports a faster wifi standard or tougher encryption? Do you need a 5v card to upgrade these? I've seen 5v wireless g cards and...

Working, in good condition with stylus and power supply $16.00. ;D

It's a parts machine, (power supply bad, hard drive removed) but was being listed only as a 533mhz, nothing said about the dual processor but the photo of the back clearly showed it as a dual processor model. The ethernet port on my single 533 went bad so I am going to combine parts to get the...

The biggest reason I didn't get it before is because it was always expensive to buy it directly from them and I could never find it used. I found a copy for $6, just the CD in a jewel case, no box or manual. Handy thing to have.

I had my Q700 in the IIvx case open recently and my hand brushed the metal case and I got shocked. i thought it was a static discharge, but when I touched it again, another shock. I can't see any places where electricity might be arcing from the power cable or power supply into the case. What do...

Supermac Thunder II WITH the DSP daughter board. :lol: So which 68kmla'ers were bidding against me?

So I was playing around with the idea of adding a second drive to my 7500 as the 500mb drive I was using is too small. I decided to just put a bigger drive in and upgrade one of my other machines with the 500mb but which one? My homemade Quadra 700 came to mind but the drive has 9.0.4 on it and...

Is anyone here cloning IIsi ROMs? PM, please.
