It's a 240V fan, so it's connected directly to the mains. Pumps masses and masses of air - but it's really a fan to be careful of - not like a 12V fan where you stick a finger in the wrong side and get a small ouch, this one bites flesh! Straight from an 80186 server used by Adelaide City...

I popped a fan on top of my iMac g3/400 for 45C days - they have a thermal cutout that popped in from time to time, and it'd just turn off to protect itself from overheating. The fan solved it all - it's a 15cm ish one, and I made a cardboard shroud to tape onto the top of the mac. it sucks air...

The lowest system for a 630 is supposed to be 7.1.2P - which likely means (as with most macs) it'll be a version specific to that machine, and the first generic system to work on 630s may be a 7.5.x That's not always the case, of course, but if you don't find a working 7.1 straight off, don't...

And without the disk cache. http://www.danamania.com/tmp/lessram.jpg Dana

7MB of disk cache :D Dana

Ahhhhhh finally :) http://www.danamania.com/tmp/605_ram.jpg Dana (thanks to Samantha for the pair of 128MB simms!)

I used one near exactly like that, in 1993-1994 - like Bunsen said, to trace large paper drawings into the computer. Mine were maps though, and not nice simple maps like google maps... but every little line on ones like http://www.adirondacknorthway.net/maps/lake_george_topo_map.jpg Thankfully...

I recommend fire* * don't breathe this. Dana

To me, it sounds like somewhere along the way someone did stick EDO into the machine, and it's borked its memory controller - and you're getting random intermittent errors of all kinds, everywhere. I think your idea of grinding up the 7200's motherboard into a fine powder is a good idea. Maybe...

Curiously, the two 475s that I've seen online with autoinject drives and the horizontal linework across the case were posted from israeli owners. I suspect there's a difference with countries, and who got what/when. Dana

TWENTY SIX LITRE V8 MAGNA!. Dana

I'm thinking.... Flower Power iMac G3 case & monitor, with dual Xeon 5365s inside. Who's with me? Dana

I did have the obsession with the feet on the lil 605 - I think it was Trash80 who coined the term 'feets' though (I could be wrong :) Dana

focusing on one isn't too practical unfortunately. Undernet has a habit of spontaneously banning australians (and some others), and some of the undernet people have similar hassles with Freenode. Dana

What all the others said. If you just want to get the 9500's motherboard out, it's no different to most other desktop machines - take the case off, take the cards out, disconnect the HDs and power connectors and all... And it's no worse than other machines in that way. The big issue with it is...

I did get the chance for some more silliness with a bit of further wallstreet disassembly. One of the other wallstreets (the left one at http://www.danamania.com/temp/greed.jpg ) has a busted screen, which I pulled to pieces, to the point it wasn't going to go back together. So - it looks like...

And now it's all together :) Annoyingly, the back of the LCD is pretty frustrating. I'm used to hardware that's solid objects that click together, screw together, and fit in only one way. That's not the case with an LCD on the inside, it's all tape and foil and glue - reminded me more of...

Last month, a few Wallstreets came my way, one of which was dead, with a display that sometimes worked, sometimes flickered weird pixels all over the place, and had a completely nonfunctional backlight. After a bit of a pull-apart, which is the thing to do in such situations :) , I find the...

now get one of the huge wide CRTs to go with it! http://www.geoapikonisis.gr/images/imagestation-pic.jpg Dana

Neither was really earlier, afaik - just the 14" wallstreets had a squared off corners, and the smaller screened wallstreets had the rounded corners. Lombards and Pismos appear to all have rounded off corners and the 14" screen - but the screen is also mounted further away from the latch in...
