Well, considering I don't plan on doing anything but using them, I'm not too concerned about anything happening. Plus, as I said, the chance that they'll want it back is one of those "negative infinity minus one" type things. Nobody cares about the stuff.

"Technically" the university still owns this stuff and "technically" if anyone were to find any record of it and want it back they would go to the surplus guy who would then either say they got trashed or I got them. However, since nothing, and I mean nothing, but monitors, towers/boxes, and...

Today I got to rummage in a very cool place. My dad knows the guy that does the surplus for the building that he (my dad) has an office with, at ECu. Apparently the things that aren't worth giving to surplus for profit, like cables and weird bits and pieces, this guy gets to keep and do whatever...

Wow, that is a really nice portable, and auction. Though the yellowing of the spacebar is a bit weird.

Their site says it works with all ADB devices provided you have drivers or some sort of support.

Seeing as the iMate is just a generic USB human interface device, yes, it will work with /anything/ that accepts USB input devices.... (including leopard...)

useless without pics

Good to hear! Wallstreets are great powerbooks with even better keyboards. :)

Correct. Wallstreets (and PDQs if you want to be picky...) have no reset buttons, just a key combo. I do agree with Franklinstein though, it sounds a lot like a loose power jack.

A dead/drained PRAM battery wont make much of a difference in terms of a wallstreet booting, you just have to do a PMU reset to get around it.

The lombard ans wallstreet use the same PSU; but the wallstreet's processor module can become pretty easily unseated so I'd give that a try, also try pressing the power management keycombo thats printed on the back. If nothing works there could be a ton of things causing the problem; bad power...

nice! is it the iSight model or an older one?

Alrighty, I just got the SE all set up and connected, and am done with a few tests. The driver that was with system 6.0.8 was the LaserWriter 7.0 extension, the one in 7.1.1 pro was 7.1.2. In 6.0.8 with both of them loaded (different names) they both successfully see the laserjet, over...

Well I learned something fun! When you run a full nmap port scan on a JetDirect card to see what ports it has open, the JetDirect card may crash and give an MIO error, requiring a restart to get everything back up and running again... ::) Also, I'm hooking up the SE now to see if the...

The HL-20x0 series is really nice. We have a HL-2070N downstairs, very fast and quiet.

Yep, it came with a jetdirect card (I use it entirely over ethernet and ethertalk now). I'm trying to think right now if i have anything with parity 72pin simms. hrmmm!

And it is, so I'll get my se and scrounge around for a serial cable. EDIT - Woot! Just hooked it up using the normal "Laserwriter" driver (nothing more specific than that) and it works *perfectly*! It even does the standard mac fonts and everything! :beige:

Just nabbed this from ECU surplus. It's in great physical condition, very light yellowing, and what looks like a really new lexmark toner cart. It also has a jetdirect card with thinnet, ethernet, and appletalk ( :D ) as well as an insane six megs of RAM. It's got 319,310 pages, talk about...

If it crashes with intensive programs maybe it's overheating?

At a thrift store the other day I picked up a brand new (sealed) UMAX Astra 3400, and a box of brand new sony HD floppies, for $12 and $2 respectively. The scanner is nothing on new ones you can get anywhere for $50, but it has USB, works natively in XP with no drivers to install, and the CD...
