    Price Check G4 Quicksilver

    Hey guys, I found the aforementioned computer on a local "classifieds" websites. It had the following description: The price was listed as $175. I've wanted to get a G4 for a while now and I was wondering if this was a good price to pick one up at. I'd prefer free, but around here Mac's are a...

    Dead HD20

    I have a Macintosh HD20 that came with my Plus, and it doesn't seem like the drive itself has stood the test of time. When I boot up my Plus with the drive turned on it will attempt to boot from it, and then fail. I eventually gave up on it, used my Centris to burn some System 6.3 images and...

    PRAM Battery Woes

    Hey guys, I've been trying to locate a nice cheap source to buy up some batteries for a recent haul of 2x Mac Plus and 2x LC550, all of which have dead or half-dead batteries that no longer allow the systems to boot. I have contacted local stores but found that even though they carry the 3.6v...

    Ye Olde Mac Haul

    Just got back from the town across the river (Mandan, ND for those interested) and got a nice deal. For a nice clean $20 I got: 2xLC 550, all-in-one systems. Both really yellowed but seem to be all there minus keyboards and mice (well, working ones). One was apparently used as a parts machine...

    Mac Color Display Problemo D:

    I have my Centris 610 hooked up to a 14" (13" viewable) Color Display that came with it when I bought it. Last night I finally got some RAM that I bought for it to max the thing out at 64Mb so I could install OS 7.6. I installed the RAM, powered up the system, and all went fine. I noticed that...

    Apple ][ Woes

    As I posted in Conquests I recently bought and just today got an Apple ][e Platinum. It came with a 5.25" drive and an RGB Monitor (which I'm pretty much using as a large paperweight atm). The RGB Monitor of course won't work the the ][e, and as I suspected it's just something the recycler stuck...

    8-) Hail friends! I have finally been able to acquire the computer that I have been after for a good 12 years since I saw my first Apple ][e at a friends house. Here It Be I'm likely going to get a Monitor ][ Color or similar to replace the GS monitor it comes with. And probably another...

    What to Buy Oo?!

    First off I am a Mac nub, I've dealt with PCs forever. Not to say that I'm "seeing the light" and changing to Macs, but after buying an Apple II I've become a little more open to fooling around on the fruit computers :p I am currently eying a Beige G3 on eBay that so far seems to be...

    7100/66

    Hey guys, I have the opportunity to get a complete 7100/66 for practically free around here and I was wondering if it was a deal I should pursue. I don't have much space available (I own 7 computers now alone). I read up on the system model and though I don't know what, if any, upgrades have...

    Hard Drive Problem

    :O I'm having some horrible luck with my Macs lately... I just got a 4.0Gb Apple 50 pin SCSI HDD to put in my Centris only to find that it, like many things, wont work. I first attached it to the SCSI cable on the second connector with the original 80Mb drive in the first like it always has...

    Upgrading a Centris 610 CPU

    Hey guys :) I have recently become interested in upgrading my Centris 610 to the 68040 processor after hearing that the FPU actually boosted the speed quite considerably. I wanted to know some opinions on whether or not this switch would pull me in the right direction in terms of getting my...
