    Apple Extended Keyboard [AEK Numero Uno] - Great Keyboard? Or *Greatest* Keyboard?

    Do those (Wacom Pen Partner) work with Windows and Mac or is there a specific model that is Mac only that you are looking for?

    Lubricating Powerbook 1xx hinges

    OMG - I have got to try that! I've been soaking mine in throttle-body cleaner (not cheap) and working silicone grease back into it by exercising the hinge. It works, but its pricey, time consuming and labor intensive. This sounds SO much better (as long as I don't burn the house down!)...

    iMac G4 17" With Potentional Power Issues?

    Sorry I just saw this post, I hope that you have made some progress with this (there is a reset button). If not, you really should get a copy of the service source (they have some excellent troubleshooting) Either search for the 'apple service source g4 17 original' or just go to MacDat's page...

    Keyboard stabilizers

    I have a collection of very thin, flat, spring steel items that I've used for these. I think over the years I've only broken two and that was going back in, not coming out. I have a lock pick, X-acto blades, a couple of machining rulers. They allow you to get in really close and put a...

    Questions about Power Mac 6100 Maintenance and Preservation

    The motherboard, like all of its ilk needs to be recapped. The "if it ain't broke" advice doesn't apply since you can't tell until it is too late that caps are bad and have damaged something. I've recapped both of my boards (and my video card) and they are solid. I have a couple of the PSU's...

    The Macintosh Portrait Display Adapter, Or, I Suck at Making Cables

    Would this also work on the SPARC Stations of a certain age? (very nice work btw!)

    LC475 with no video

    What was your arrangement for this? The normal lithium battery (14250) is 3.6 volts. I will test out mine with a lower voltage and see if there is a point where I can recreate the issue. Alternatively if it is a broken trace, here are the 475 schematics from the MacDat site (nice place btw)...

    LC475 with no video

    Ditto on the battery with this model. And I have much better luck since I started using a white vinegar soak to eliminate the cap juice (followed by DI water and 99% alcohol) for what its worth.

    Apple Network Server AIX

    If you are looking for apache on AIX, I would start here. I have no idea if the open source AIX dl's would work or not on an ANS, but its a good place to start your research. Good luck.

    Installing RAM in a IIcx...

    My bad too! I got caught up in the IIci talk and forgot to check the beginning of the thread...happy to see it running, congrats!

    Installing RAM in a IIcx...

    ...from the Apple Memory Guide...I also recall there is a post (not sure where) about the optimum bank A amount. Too much DRAM decreases the onboard video performance.

    iMac G4 17" 1GHz Power Supply Repair

    I cut away some of the outer insulation to more fully examine the damage and it appears that the pinching only caused minor damage to the metal sheathing. If I see video issues when it is working again, I will know where to check first. I'm not sure if this is the site of a blown electronic...

    iMac G4 17" 1GHz Power Supply Repair

    Noted - I didn’t know about the different revisions, but it makes sense and like you, I jot down the locations, values when I recap them, so I’ll just use your list as a guide. Thanks for your help
