Well, before we get to a price, I need some help. It looks like the company that recycled these just installed Windows on them. I can't get any of them to boot to a 10.4 install DVD, they just boot to Windows, or boot to "No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key". I can get them...

All or most are A1176, which I believe is Core2Duo

I believe most of them are Intel

Have a pretty decent haul from the recycler today, and got a great price! $400 for everything! So here's the tally: 14. Mac Minis with adapters, 14 IBM ThinkCentres, and 4 laptops. Not bad! The stuff is for eBay anyway, so it's all for sale if anyone is interested.

I am talking about the PSU as far as recapping and discharging capacitors. On an LC you need the PSU and LB recapped. And no, the PSU cannot, as far as I am aware, be operated outside of the LC.

Sometimes the clicking is hard to hear. I have had to put my ear right against some units just to hear it faintly. Also a word of caution: when you open these things, the line filter capacitor remains charged with lethal voltages. You want to carefully (with one hand in your pocket) remove the...

With an LC, to boot just flip the switch on the PSU. If you listen closely, you should hear "tick tick tick" which means you need a recap. I have the capacitors you need to do an entire recap for $10 shipped. This assumes you have a TDK PSU, I don't have capacitors for anything else.

The PSU connector is disconnected? Do you mean that the physical connector that goes into the motherboard has become detached/broken off of the PSU?

Well, I recently saw Hap selling a Portable for a pretty good price, so I snatched it up! It has a few cosmetic issues, but not in places too noticeable when sitting on my shelf. It does need work, and I will be recapping it as well as having the battery repacked. I paid $140 shipped for...

I'm getting somewhere. I will order capacitors for the unit soon, however in the mean time, what do you recommend to get the battery re packed?

Well, I feel like a complete idiot. I just bought a Mac Portable and can't even figure out how to turn the thing on. There is no power button from what I can tell. Can someone help me out? Maybe it's the battery?

The NuVista was smoking after the pop. I removed what appeared to be a charred component which is what the screwdriver is pointing at. When I get it out again I will try the suggestions some of you have given.

I'll do that a bit later. It's put away right now. Does the Q950 have on board graphics, or could it have been part of the card I just blew?

I don't have anything other than what you see in the photos. I tried plugging it into a monitor from the d19 plug on the back of the motherboard, and nothing happens.

I'm frustrated to say the least. Why? Let's start from the beginning. I finally got a case for my various 950 parts that have been sitting for a while unused. I put them all together, and I get a chime, then an immediate death tone. It did this from the start. I removed some cards to connect a...

Manufactured in 1977 for those wondering.

What all would I need to connect my iPad Mini to this for YouTube and the like? I have a regular coax connection now, but what is the cheapest option to go about this?

I got one, maybe I will someday. I want to take the stuff off the shelves and set up some of the better machines with accessories on a long table so people can just turn one on and start messing with it.

Got a VCR out and after some adjustments, I can clearly see the menu screen. It is a black and white TV, but that's what I was expecting. I might try to find a place for it in the garage and hook my iPad to it.
