    2x Damaged Mac II in exchange for IIfx logic board repair.

    I have access to a IIfx that had PRAM battery leakage in the past but the board shows no signs of anything stuck to it or any corrosion but it won't power up. It was known to be good prior to the battery leakage. What do you think could be the problem?

    Software and docs for 6100 DOS card

    Two say Macintosh display drivers 1&2, one just says 'Mouse' which I am going to guess is either a MS mouse driver or allows DOS to recognize the ADB mouse, one that says SoundBlaster 16, two installer discs (one says DOS installer the other says Macintosh installer) four DOS 6.22 floppies...

    Software and docs for 6100 DOS card

    Scooped up this one today. Has all floppies and documentation that go with the 6100 DOS card. Now all I need is the actual card and angle adapter for my 6100 DOS compatible. :-/

    Snapped the neck of a CRT?

    I just did last month. I got a 20mb SE with a 68020 accelerator installed and was trying to get it apart because the accelerator wasn't seated securely in the slot. I yanked on a connector cable gently at first but it was stuck fast so I pulled it a little harder and it broke free and the...

    Should it stay or should it go?

    Isn't there some crappy PC you could get rid of instead? :p :lol: I'd be tempted to take it myself but shipping would be killer on that thing and driving all the way up to you to get it would cost even more. :(

    How many have a Powermac G5?

    Brother Atarian! I have a Falcon 030 but my best ordinary ST is a 1040STF. I'm trying to track down a TT/030 but they are always like $500-$1000 when they come up on ebay. :(

    Can 8500 do 8

    The 9600 requires 7.6.1. You can't even use a 7.6 install disc, it has to be 7.6.1. I have both and that .1 tacked on at the end makes a huge difference to these machines. I agree with most of this. I keep 7.6.1 and 8.1 install discs as my baseline OS's. The one I use depends how powerful the...

    Generic PRAM batteries

    Macs and PC's added together I probably have about 50 but most of the PC's are for future parts salvage. There's only a few that I intend to keep intact like my Dell GX 1's. I'm retaining them because I really like the styling. They are very reminiscent of the beige desktop Powermac cases and...

    MacOS 9.1 vs Ubuntu 9.10

    You have to have at least a minimal install of 9.x.x to run BootX so having an option for both seemed redundant. I'm trying to decide whether to devote the whole drive to 9 or partition for Linux making Linux the larger of the two.

    2 Powerleap Slotwonder

    I didn't realize they worked in consumer motherboards. On Intels' own site it says they are for server use only so I thought they did something to them like add an extra pin so they wouldn't fit in the normal P-III socket. I wish I had known that sooner or I would have had these two Dells...

    2 Powerleap Slotwonder

    I've had two Dell Optiplex GX1 desktop machines for a while that I have been wanting to upgrade and finally found two of these with 1.4ghz P-III's installed. Not Celerons like you usually see, but the far less common desktop variant of the full P-III. There are several steppings for the 1.4ghz...

    Week old bid pays off

    Nothing too big but managed to pick up a power board for my 128k for $25 shipped. I made that bid a week ago and didn't think it would win, but I guess demand for these is slackening. I was going to see if I could use a board from one of my Pluses that I thought wasn't working but when I powered...

    G4 MDD 1.25Ghz

    I had a chance to grab a FW800 single 1ghz machine for $119 not long ago. That's less than I paid for my 533mhz DA a few years ago. I let it go because the shipping would have been too much and I didn't feel like driving over to Brooklyn to pick it up although he did also have the seldom seen...

    Generic PRAM batteries

    I wanted to do something like that but don't know how. Would I have to solder the wires to the existing battery socket? If I could attach the wires without soldering, that would be better. It would help because I use rechargeable AA's so I wouldn't have to buy batteries very often. Yes, all the...

    Generic PRAM batteries

    Since I needed a bunch I decided to go with a bulk purchase and managed to find 10 packs for $28 shipped. Nearly every beige Powermac and Quadra I have thinks it's 1956. 8-o

    9600 G4

    When I put the 1ghz G4 in my 7500 it wouldn't power up at first. It's a good thing I got an instruction manual because in the manual it says when you remove the old CPU you have to do a PRAM reset BEFORE you install the upgrade or else it won't work. When I put the G3 in my 7600 it powered right...
