Electronic waste?!?

Oh no! That's not electronic waste that's good stuff. We gotta start buying those ridiculously overpriced stuff on eBay to make sure that gold recovery is never an option!

Does anyone know of a way to force a resolution (such as 1024x768) on my 475? I just have a dumb Mac-to-Vga adapter with no sense settings at the moment. Gonna get the adjustable one soon, though.

I swear that fan in the Mini used to work. Now nothing. Plus, it stops in the Opencore bootup.

@Phipli Thanks!. I took a chance on a really cheap card while I had some spare money. Gotta look into changing it out.

Welp, time to solder in some new caps on my Mustangs spare ECU. I dont feel like paying around 500 for a working one if it bites the dust.

When Apple was thinking of the next gen os (Copland, etc.) I wonder if they thought of using AUX and modernizing it.

7200s case arrived today. Its... a little beat up but serviceable. Never had an Outrigger case before. One of Apples more intelligently designed cases, but still brittle plastic though.
