    New PowerBook G3! (Wallstreet)

    I just acquired a 14" PowerBook G3 233 MHz (Wallstreet) as an alternative to my Beige G3 tower for making floppies for my older Macs. It's a beauty for sure ( picture! http://i.imgur.com/ArTwpmQ.jpg) ... it's in excellent shape. Just thought I would share it, but if there's any advice on how to...

    No video after PRAM battery replaced (Beige G3 Tower)

    Yesterday I replaced the PRAM battery in my Power Macintosh G3, which I thought would be a quick procedure, but it's turned into a whole new issue. The machine chimes and I can hear the hard drive churning as it loads OS 9. After the hard drive stops, I can press the power button, at which point...

    LC III, pink video out

    I recently acquired an LC III that's in very good condition. Unfortunately, I don't own a vintage Apple CRT so I don't know if I'm experiencing a problem or if I just have a slightly incompatible monitor. As you can see here the video display is pinkish: http://i.imgur.com/QrO8YuD.jpg I'm using...

    Repair Apple M0130 External? Disks not loading

    I have an external Apple floppy drive, model M0130. It doesn't take any disks I try to feed into it. Any given disk will only go so far. Here's a picture of its internals: http://i.imgur.com/3lKgwaD.jpg As you can see from the top middle part of the photo, the disk goes in as far as it can. No...

    Like brand new condition (Beige) Power Macintosh G3!

    I picked up this beauty for only $20 back on Sunday: http://i.imgur.com/BdubkMc.jpg I got it from the original owner, even got the original receipt. It was purchased in 1998 for nearly $4000 (the tower, including monitor and other accessories). With it I also got the original software packages...

    Apple II Plus and lots of other loot

    Today I picked all this stuff up for $200. Upon going through it I feel like there's way more than $200 worth here. Definitely keeping all of it for life! http://imgur.com/a/cM3Ut

    Apple II Boot Error (D3E5- A=01...etc)

    Full error: D3E5- A=01 X=00 Y=08 P=34 S=F4 I came into an original Apple II, and when I initially plugged it in to see if it works, it didn't work. I pulled up, by chance, ROM-F8 (no significance, just picked it at random) and noticed it has a broken pin. I've fixed that temporarily by jamming...

    IIc case screws

    I bought an Apple IIc, and found out the case isn't screwed together. At all. I would obviously like to fix this! :) I was wondering if anyone would have an idea what type/size screws might work... I don't need stock or anything, just whatever's the best fit. Ideas? :)

    Mac SE/30 somewhat successful recap, but not quite.

    First of all, hello! I'm new! Last month I bought an SE/30 off eBay, and it's in otherwise perfect condition except it had very faint sound. I did my research and of course... new capacitors was the answer. I finally got some tantalums in the mail today, and did a pretty fine job of recapping...
