Yup, you won't regret it for sure! Great place to dig around, you'll end up walking out with something. Also forgot to mention that I grabbed a big box PC game from the Free box there as well - turned out to be worth a solid amount!

Finally made it to this store again (same place where olePigeon has scored well) Boxed Interact M Flight Force ADB joystick Sealed Norton DiscLock (Mac) PowerBook video cable Boxed DB-25 serial "Genius Mouse" Decent sized whiteboard $15 for everything. Not a total steal, but I'm very happy.

Very nice! Me and Herb had a misunderstanding a while back, so he refuses to talk with me now.

Wow, this is an amazing score, to say the least. Congrats!

Haha, nice! :p Nah, not really though. It's "Rude Tetris", or the version of Tetris that shouted rude phrases at you and occasionally gave you completely random pieces. And if somebody has a copy and would like something in exchange for it, please let me know. I would gladly pay/trade...

Thanks all! Yeah, Goodwill tends to be just totally random. You often just strike out there completely because of that stupid recycling thing. Can't wait to try this on my LC 575 and play it like I used to play it on the Mac I used to play on! I always loved using the robot destruction tool.

Does anybody have a copy of the shareware version of this program by any chance? I'm almost ready to offer something for one, as I really would like to try the game. Thanks so much!

Nice score! Would you be willing to take a few pics of the NES/Genesis/SNES stuff? I'm interested, depending on the price really.

Nice! Where exactly in the WeirdStuff store were you able to find the Futura II card in? Haven't seen any NuBus stuff in my last few trips D:

As you'd expect - pics or it didn't happen ;) ;)

That is a neat mod! To be honest, I'd leave it as it is because it seems really unique. Anyways, congrats!

Yeah, I've struck out with Goodwill plenty of times. :( If it helps, try searching around the VHS/DVD section. The Goodwill here tends to put a lot of floppy media there.

This isn't much, but Sim City 2000 was a game I used to play on a LC 575 at elementary all of the time. So I saw this at Goodwill (the same one where I picked up a ton of Apple Developer CDs and a PB 170 with 1 GB drive) for $5. Picked it up, and it works perfectly! Came with literally...

Very nice! You are an amazing person for taking up this task. Sorry to hear about the lost CAD drawing though. :(

You only need a cable which can be found for a couple of bucks and a Mac-VGA adapter. http://cgi.ebay.com/MACINTOSH-POWERBOOK-VIDEO-CABLE-190-520-540-/300544133640?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item45f9d38a08 Though I'm pretty sure you can find one for even cheaper.

Alright, thanks! and at @MacJunky: I haven't really have had time yet to do so completely since I started the topic :/ The last time I attempted to do so, the interior hinge screws seemed a bit tight, and I was a bit nervous about messing up the screw plastic. Next week will be when I'll have...

...or is the main issue with the LCD back housing breaking at the screw areas? Let me know. Thanks! -J

The motherboard itself should be relatively easily to find, as it's shared between PB 140/145/170s. Finding a parts unit should be relatively easy. Sorry to hear about the burnt components! :(

Yup, that's the total amount of RAM if the module is the small 2x1 sized one. Let us know if it boots or not!

PowerBook 100 Series M5140 The first AC adapter, 15 W, came with PowerBook 100, 140, and 170 computers. Note: This adapter was replaced by model M4662. M5651 The second AC adapter, 19 W, came with the PowerBook 145b, 160, 165, and 180. This adapter works with PowerBook 140, 145, 145b, 160...
