    Powerbook 170 Battery Door won't open

    Any ideas? Got it for free, and am excited to get it working. It powers on, but with weird pattern on screen. I'm trying to slide the battery door open, and it just won't move. I don't want to use a screwdriver as I fear i might damage it as it's in great shape. Thanks Mark

    From a roadside rubbish pile to my living room (Intel iMac)

    Nice score dude! It's a really cool experience picking things up for free! I recently acquired 2x of the first aluminum 2007 iMac core 2 duos (2ghz, 4gb ram) from a friend who had them destined for recycling in a basement. I was quite happy to say the least. Clean installs of snow leopard on...

    Macintosh Plus 4MB

    Congrats Marky! That is a very nice specimen indeed! It's great you got it hooked up with 4 megs as well. I agree totally with you about that constant whine of the hardrive compacts. The Jaz drive option is my favorite! I have 2 of them, one a 1 gb, the other a 2 gb. I think i might try and...

    Tricked out, Macintosh SE

    6.08 is the sweetspot for these guys. I have 7.01 on my classic ii, and I won't lie, feels a bit slower. But I haven't maxed my RAM out yet, not sure how much of a difference that will make. I'm thinking I will do a clean install of 6.08L and copy all my apps etc over from my external jaz, then...

    Successful week of conquests!

    Nice Work! Wish i would stumble upon an apple midi interface! Might have to start actively looking for one. Did you lick that grape iMac? I got one this week as well, off the side of the road, mint shape.

    What I've received as of late...

    Congrats! I still think that the iPhone 4 and 4s are the pinnacle of the modern cell phone design. I'm sure it will be outdone with the next major revision, but the iPhone 5 hasn't impressed me at all either with it's look or un-competitive new features that were supposed to put them back on...

    2x iMac Grape off side of road, which one to keep?

    I put it up on craiglist and kijiji here in toronto. Shipping these things would be stupid money!

    2x iMac Grape off side of road, which one to keep?

    I've decided to keep the 333 tray loader! Main reasons were nostalgia, condition, and build quality. I would like to keep both, but my girl is going to start snapping with too many machines around, and i'm honestly starting to stumble over things in my production room. The only way i'd take on...

    2x iMac Grape off side of road, which one to keep?

    I can think of much poorer apple designs like the performa all in ones and the ugly tacked on look of the beige g3 towers to name a couple. I'm not a huge fan of the iMac g3's but considering most of them come from schools where they may have been run incessantly and abused, i'd say they've...
