Very well! My mistake. And since I can't edit posts here, I will be forever shamed! As for you, jruschme, the RAM in question pops in and out of stock here pretty regularly at the reseller I found it at. If you want, I can keep an eye on it for you and snag some if you need it.

Some updates to this machine, since I'm sure you were all waiting quite impatiently to hear about it! I mean, come on. It's been what, five months? - Someone here was kind enough to sell me a 500 MHz G3 ZIF upgrade for cheap, so CPU speed is optimal! - The RAM is now maxed. 1GB of PC133...

When I'm selling something for local pickup, to a person who I don't know (be it personally or from a community forum) I don't really feel like I owe anything to "the first person to say they'll take it." Unless they're paying me to hold it, the first person to successfully complete the chain...

I really like that! I wonder what that board was cut from.

Easy enough. I actually just did an AGP card for someone's Sawtooth, and it was an FX5200. This assumes you have a PC that will take the card in order to do the flashing. 1) Create a Windows 98 DOS boot disk. 2) Download the current version of nvflash...

Aw, sweet. I want a first-gen iPod because I'm a big fat weirdo.

I loved my G4, and it was just a 12" 1GHz. They're good little notebooks.

My 1.25GHz iMac G4 was even dirtier inside, if you can believe that. The optical drive was buggered on mine, so it merited tearing it most of the way apart. It's nice and clean inside now - I was in a hurry, else I would have taken photos. I regret it now.

http://www.fixya.com/support/t2630438-apple_cinema_display_23_led_short_long Solution #3 details the trick - it's really quite simple. I'll post photos later. The trick to disassembling the Cinema HD is the following: 1) Using a spudger (or a small flathead screwdriver, very carefully) pry...

On a local car forum, of all places, there is a phenomenal marketplace. Car enthusiasts of all kinds gather there to discuss...well, cars, obviously, but also a variety of other topics that don't pertain to automobiles at all, including electronics, video games, computers, and society and...

I am intrigued by the form factor and the vintage to the point where I am considering picking one up. Unfortunately, for the price of getting a system, a battery, and an AC adapter (all separate) I could probably get a Pismo.

It's looking more and more like I'm going to have to replace the mylar sheet. The break is actually in the cable section off the bottom of the sheet, under that black tape that covers the traces. Unfortunately, peeling that tape back to get at the traces underneath took a lot of the trace...

I believe one of the traces on my Duo's keyboard is severed or broken somewhere. I'm actually fairly sure I know which one (the one on the lower sheet which goes from the Control key to the connector tab) but I don't know how to go about fixing it. I could replace the keyboard - in fact, with...

That's a shame. I have a soft spot for those little white iBooks, and apparently the patience of a saint.

Whaaaat. Jealous - nice score on the SE and SE/30. I really want an SE for some stupid reason. You had better hack the poop out of them.

Err, again, my Tiger install discs are CDs - a set of four.

I've got a 700 MHz Dual-USB that I just finished putting Tiger on, and all it's got to work with is the 20x CD-ROM or whatever. It IS doable.

I won't lie, if you decide to gut the Performa, I'd be interested in the case for an ITX project, because I'm a loser that way. I still think this is a really nice haul, considering where you found them.

Jerk! Seriously, I loved my 1.07 GHz G4 iBook. They're great little machines, and fun to take apart. Enjoy it!

Heh! Yeah, I'm pretty lame, too, so I spend a lot of time on Craigslist and Kijiji. It's always nice to have some locals around, though we're pretty spread out, from what I can tell. I know there's a couple guys in Edmonton, one or two here, and then you, apparently. Should get a swap meet/meet...
