Thanks. I have been very lucky with Freecycle over the past couple of years. The AIO was picked up yesterday. I got it from a Freecycle post about two years ago. One of the BWs is promised already. Giving them away provides an opportunity to get rid of some other stuff I have lying around...

I got the G3 400 up and running. Since I made out so well on this deal I think it will go back up on Freecycle along with my AIO G3 and another BW 400 I have. I'll definitely keep the G3 450 and G4 450 dual. My daughter now has the iMac 400 DV I aquired so her old iMac 333 will be used as a...

I'm shocked too. It is really quick with Panther. I just got the G3 450 up and running. I am running OS 9 on that one. I threw in 256mb of ram as well as 40gb and 30 gb hard drives. Right now it is used as storage.

The 450 DP is up and I am posting this using it. I found two 256mb dimms in the G3s and added two 128mb sticks for 768 total. I put in a 10gb 7200pm Deskstar drive in it that had Panther on it already. It booted right up. I also threw in another 20gb drive I had lying around. It looks...

I picked them up today. They all work. The G3s are 400 and 450. The G4 is a 450 dual processor. The G3s have ram and hard drives. This should keep me busy for a while. They all have DVD drives and zips as well.

What would be the best way to connect a laserwriter 320 directly to an iMac? Localtalk/ethernet bridge?

I just got word that I can pickup two G3 BW towers and a G4 tower tomorrow from a local Freecycle post. I'm told the two G3s may run and the G4 at least needs a new hard drive. They were posted as parts only so I'm hoping they can be made to work. Counting the iMac I just picked up this will...

Unformatted it is 40gb. I may give panther a try if I up the ram to 256mb.

Images of the boxes and computer are posted on 68k flickr.

Blueberry. These came in the same colors as the original five flavor models. Just upgraded to 9.2.2 also. DVD player works. It came with an original iMovie CD too.

Its here. Better than I expected. Original box and foam with all the CDs including an OS 9.2 CD. Matching keyboard and hockey puck mouse. Booted up to OS 9.2.1. Internal modem doesn't work so it came with an external 56k Zoom USB powered modem. 37 gb hard drive. Only 64 mb of ram so I...

I just won an ebay auction on an iMac DV for $11. 400mhz, 64mb ram, maybe a 40gb hard drive. Local pickup hopefully tomorrow. It has the original box and software CDs too. More to follow...

Nice. Is it a 117mhz or 133mhz?

A while back I gave a coworker a Performa 6200 to keep his grades on. He left for another job recently and left the computer behind. It looks like it will be finding its way back to me in the near future. This is the second time something like this has happened. The first time a Quadra 650...

Nice. Beige G3s are dirt cheap these days. I got my desktop G3 a while back for $10 on a local pickup.

I took it to the local library which has wifi access. The control panel showed that a signal was being picked up. I opened up Netscape and the libraru home page came up. I had some problems logging on to the website so I rebooted the computer. The control panel showed a signal was still...

I tried a pram reset and still nothing. It seems dead to me. :'(

The battery is known to be good. I will try the board again and reset the pram. Thanks.

I tried to startup my 610 today and got the chimes of death after I installed another 32mb simm in it. I thought it was the ram at first but it test OK in my LC 475. I pulled all the ram and still got the chime. I also toggled the power switch a few times and still nothing. I assume the...

The base station is set to unencrypted. I tried the card in my 1400 also. It used to work in it and no longer does. Either my base station is no longer produces a wireless signal or the card is not working.
