Hey! In my set of iMac G4 restore media, disc 3 is scratched and unreadable. I was wondering if anyone has this disc, and if so, would you be able to make an image of it for me? The disc is gray and titled "iMac Software Install and Restore 3," CD Version 1.0, and the part number reads...

I just noticed this today: Clicking on it, it appears to show new posts in the lounge only. I was just curious as to why is it striked out?

Hey all- I found an eMac in a recycling pile today. The machine works perfectly as far as I can tell; slight burn in and a few scratches on the case, but nothing major. Specs: 700MHz G4 256MB RAM 40GB HD Combo Drive Doesn't have an AirPort card. But hey, what can you expect for free...

I ordered an iPod nano last week, after I lost my 8gb touch :( It's an 8gb black model. It'll hold me out until next month, when/if I get a music phone. I'm kicking myself for not engraving the old iPod, as someone might be less likely to sell it if it had something like this on it...

A box from Newegg came today. In it was: 2 SATA cables Transcend 2.5" SATA HD case (N82E16817349007) Seagate 1.5 TB (yes, terabyte) SATA HD (N82E16822148337) D-Link 5-port gigabit ethernet switch (N82E16833127083) I'm slowly starting to move away from the life of 10/100 and IDE stuff, as...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220343401339 I couldn't pass the thing up for $40. Better yet, it's supposed to get here tomorrow :D I still dunno what I'm gonna do with it, but I'll prolly throw some sort of Windows server on it.

I got this from John8520 on Monday. It's a 1.5GHz Core2Duo, 3GB RAM, 80GB HD, CD-RW. I'll eventually get a bigger HD for it, but for now, it works fine. Getting this around this time seems like a nice Christmas gift, even though it came a little early. Wheeee :)

I just acquired a 6500/300 from my school, and it looks like it works okay, except for the fact that its CPU fan makes a loud grinding noise when it's on. I was just curious as to whether or not it's safe to leave this running without the fan plugged in. The fan's mounted on a heatsink anyway...

I got a ThinkPad 600e back in July, and I think its CD drive was broken, because no matter what version of Windows I tried (2000, 98, XP), setup wouldn't get past the same file every time I tried each version. This also happened with different copies of the discs, too, so it wasn't a disc...

Found one of these guys in Goodwill today for $20. Figured it'd be nice to have to type some school papers on without distractions. http://tinypic.com/useralbum.php?ua=2DCOrtqRKVlw59FsvKg%2BHQ%3D%3D <-- pictures... ...and a video of it printing...

I bought one of these guys off eBay last week, and it showed up yesterday :) http://iannixon.com/images/2008/09/09/ It's a 1.8 GHz Pentium Duo, but the auction stated a Core2Duo. I'm working things out with the seller. It has 1GB RAM and an 80GB HD, both of which are gonna be upgraded...

I ordered an 8GB refurb iPod touch on Wednesday, and the thing showed up here yesterday. It's awesome having another Mobile OS X device after the iPhone was sold back in April :)

I got these laptops from a nice fellow off Freecycle. http://i33.tinypic.com/m96pdv.jpg Compaq Armada 1750, PII 400 MHz, 128MB, 10GB, XP http://i35.tinypic.com/2h38lxz.jpg Compaq Armada e500, PIII 450 MHz, 128MB, 10GB (no power supply, possibly broken power button)...

Today at Dollar Tree, I got a few things: 2 USB male to female cables (60") 2 Firewire 400 cables (24") USB notebook light Memory card case 4 electric outlet grounders Grand total: $8 Not too too Mac-related, but I found out that Dollar Tree can be an awesome source for cheap cables...

I just got my shipment of 2x1GB sticks of RAM for my PowerBook. I ordered them on Wednesday night, and would have had them sooner, but UPS ground doesn't ship on the weekend. Kinda steep, though; I paid $110 for two sticks of DDR 333 PC2700. But the PowerBook is -really- snappy now. :)

I found a 22" Cinema Display today. Upon powering it, I find out it looks like this: http://i29.tinypic.com/qxwcp2.jpg I also scored a gigabit ethernet G4, but nothing happens when you hit the power button. I guess the power supply might be bad or something. Oh, well. Not too too bad for...

I found one of these in a computer recycling bin today. It's got no RAM, and no HD. It uses RIMMs, though, none of which I have. I might buy 2x128MB on eBay, but I'm not sure. I have to look and see what money I have, and whether or not it's worth it to buy the RAM. But when I plug it in...

My 15" PowerBook, running Leopard, has recently been showing some weird problem. In the Energy Saver prefs for both Power Adapter and Battery settings, I have it set so as not to dim the screen before display sleep. However, the screen still dims after a few minutes of machine inactivity, no...

I was able to grab an Airport card and iMac carrier, 2 black Pro Keyboards, and a black Pro Mouse from a pile of 'trash' today. Can't wait to get home :D
