    In the depths of the storage areas

    I have no idea.  The part number says 680-5017-B.  This computer had been cycled out before I started working here in July of 1992.

    In the depths of the storage areas

    I will be retiring soon, and it was decided that this would be a good time for me to clean out our storage areas.  The goal was to catalog, recycle, sell or discard old software and hardware that no longer has any usefulness to the business.  Some of this stuff has been with the company longer...

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    I noticed there were only pieces and parts for sale on ebay.  And yes, the plastic-itis took out two G3 desktop units I had set aside as spares.  Every time I opened the cases something would break off.  I was amazed that this 7200 was not falling apart when I opened it to take a look inside.  I...

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    The 7200 is a 120.  There isn't anything very interesting inside it.  Nothing in the PCI slots.  It isn't even really discolored.

    I managed to pull one off without breaking it.

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    I did a better inventory last night.  I have 3 PM 7100, 1 PM 7200, and 1 PM 7500.  The 7200 and the 7500 both have 3 PCI expansion slots.  That makes them a little more useful.  I am going to put them both up on the trading post later, after I unwrap them and get some of the other specifics off...

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    Yes, that's exactly what I pulled out of the 7100.  I misspoke when I said it was a VGA connector.  But, with an adapter (of which we have at least a dozen, not for sale) hooks right up to a VGA monitor.

    No worries.  I was agreeing with you.

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    No, they're pretty discolored.  It's VERY noticeable since a large part of the cover appears to be powder coated steel.

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    Okay, help me out and describe exactly what you are looking for.  Not sure what HPV means, and the removable Video Card in the 7100 I opened up has a VGA connector on it.  It also has what looks to be a DVI connector built onto the motherboard.  I'll have to get the 7200 out and see what exactly...

    I'm not sure it would be worth the cost of shipping across the pond.

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    I've installed SCSI2SDs in my IIsi and IIci dependent machines.  They aren't without their own hiccups and issues.  I've had a very difficult time Getting SCSI2SD to work correctly in my G3s, and my G4s don't even want to recognize them.  Our Old 7100s and 7200s don't really have anything...

    This is a great answer.  Thanks!

    PowerMac 7100 and 7200

    I have a couple of old 7100 and 7200 units gathering dust.  I've gotten permission to evaluate them for disposal, and I was wondering if it is worth my time to pull anything besides the SCSI drives out of them.  I did some research and saw that these are not the most desirable machines due to...

    Making working on II series Macs easier

    There's my problem.  It's really hard to find ones that work in OS 8.  I am sure he'd love to have the USB Keyboard as well, though.  I'll try looking a little harder for the PCI cards.

    Yes!  Thank you!

    Fall Clean out

    I am being asked to clean out, dispose of, or otherwise downsize our stash of stuff at my workplace.  I have some odd cables I've come across that I know I have never used, and a USB cable I can't figure out.  What would you have used an ADB to mini din-8 cable to do?  One USB cable has me...

    Thanks again.  BMOW is out of stock right now, so I guess I will have to wait.

    Making working on II series Macs easier

    Thanks!  There would be just one keyboard and just one mouse plugged into it.  Can the mouse be plugged into the USB hub on the keyboard, or does it have to be plugged directly into the Wombat?

    Making working on II series Macs easier

    Has anyone got one of the ADB-USB Wombats?  I have a guy who is using a beige G3 who would kill for an optical mouse.  Not only that, working ADB keyboards are not easy to find any more, and being able to plug a USB keyboard into a IIsi would surely make life easier.
