    HDI-20 Repair?

    I've got a Powerbook Duo 2300c that has a dead hard drive. I want to restore this since this is kinda easy to repair, especially since it uses 2.5 IDE instead of 2.5 SCSI, so I can just put in a cheap 2.5 IDE to CF converter and install MacOS and these Powerbook Duos are quite rare. The only...

    iMac G3 Rev.B CD problem?

    I got an iMac G3 Rev. B and it turns out the cd drive doesn't want to work, I tried moving the laser, and it moved, but you had to put some force (I used tweezers, so I didn't touch the laser, FYI), so is there some way to grease the rails where the laser sits like a Macintosh floppy drive?
