    putting paracord on the charging cable

    Obviously not limited to PPC laptops, but I just scored a long lusted-after machine, a 17" AlBook G4. I also have a 65w charger coming, and I remember from having an iBook back in the day how weak the charging cord can be. I'm not planning on abusing it of course, but if there's something I...

    Plopping an SSD in a B/W

    I'm asking mostly as a sanity check...I bought the 120GB SATA to IDE kit (actually 2, one is going in my iMac G3 as soon as I get up the nerve to take it apart :D ) for my rev 2 blue and white, it looks like the former owner opted for the ultra scsi raid card and one of the drives is currently...

    iMac G3 usb, cd issues

    well I reformatted it as a 16gb stick with thr rest of it just as free space, it couldn't read that either but when I rereformatted it as 114gb in os9 I was able to copy stuff onto it in os x. so yay I guess, just weird is all.

    iMac G3 usb, cd issues

    I also tried a reburn of the same disc with just OS X's built-in burner and the iMac read it with no issue so maybe I just had a setting mis-set

    iMac G3 usb, cd issues

    I recently rescued a working g3/350 from being e-wasted, and it has 9.1 installed on it. I'm planning on upping it to 9.2.1 or .2. I also have a modern 128gb USB3 usb drive that I formatted in os x lion as mac os standard, but when I plugged into the iMac it couldn't read it, and asked to format...

    B&W G3 handles, part deuce

    Heard back and ugh, of course they don't have the correct one. So I'm back to square 1. there's a couple of complete machines on ebay, maybe they'll part out. Unless someone here has one they don't want anymore? :)

    B&W G3 handles, part deuce

    So after much hemming and hawwing I bit the bullet and bout the replacement rear foot for my blue and white from usedmac (at 45$ mind, I know I know, supply and demand but sheesh) anyway, it showed up today, and I tried it on, and this...doesn't feel quite right I.suppose I could mention that...

    B&W G3 handles

    Just recently got an otherwise fine G3/450 in the post, but unfortunately the seller didn't pack it as well as they could have, and the bottom rear support bracket took a critical hit. I've seen this particular one for 46$ ()ugh on usedmac and I know I've read the G4 brackets are...
