    Are these external monitor ports on this LC 575?

    This computer...It was my teacher's computer in 6th grade. I always acted up in class so as punishment, had to sit in front of this thing and watch this colorful line screensaver for a good half a year. :o) I wonder if that screensaver exists in the nets still..

    Is this a Duo keyboard?

    My girlfriend just pointed out the difference between the German one and mine. Some of the letters are ass-backwards. I'm sure it will function just fine with the US keyboard setting...I hope :?: how often does one find a new Duo keyboard? Never!

    Is this a Duo keyboard?

    Got it! 8-) Thanks for the insight. The up and down arrows look easier to play games with than my current arrangement. My caps lock and shift key on the left side is dead. All the other keys are super plushy, much more than normal. The picture must just have some funky colors..The thing...

    Powerbook Duo 250 and dead Classic

    Those are cool laptops. I loved my 280c. It worked like a little trooper until one day using the duo dock, I ejected it like normal. Never powered up again! Thanks DuoDock II xx(

    Tweaking 10.4 for a mid-range G3: how to kill the eye-candy?

    I know the unsanity shapeshifter program (sometimes worked, sometimes total junk for me) a while back would bog up the system with a crazy theme applied, but what if the theme was like a system 7 theme? Or a bare minimum one. Might make it fast. I don't even know where to find an older version...

    Powerbook G3 Lombard 10.4 Wireless card

    My Orinoco Gold (flashed silver) card doesn't work in 10.4 but it does work in OS 9. Are there any cheap cards that will work in 10.4? I don't want to buy the wrong one and it would be of help if someone already has this setup.

    Macintosh TV with one dead speaker

    My TV has one (don't know left or right) dead speaker. Don't know if the speaker or some other component is broke. I tried a zillion settings with software, new system installs, everything. In TV mode, only one speaker also. It is still kind of loud with music and but the boot chime is not very...

    Another iBook G3 & Problem Solved

    Those iBooks had some pretty gnarly video problems, I think the rate of failure was more than 50%. I had a few and they seemed to run hot all the time, probably leading to the crappy cold solder joint problems. You should really get a notebook cooler for it. They are cheap usually.

    So I ordered that cable and a working apple 4x scsi cd-rom drive (tray loading). Hopefully this will fix the termination problem and also let me get files from cds. Thanks for helping!

    Ok so as it stands, I have jumpers on slots 1, 3, and M on the hard drive. When I have the Syquest or the terminator at the end of a scsi cable, the hard disk boots. I have tried a few other jumper settings without the scsi cable attached and it still doesn't want to boot all on it's own. I...
