    what causes LCD rot?

    260? What spec is that?  I only knew of 210, 230, 250, 270, and 280 plus the 2300.

    my Mac Centris 610- caps list for recapping? and PPC ?

    Mine does have onboard ethernet but it used tiny Apple connector and I don't have a transceiver to deal with it. Thanks for that link, looks like easy job for the 610.

    Best PRAM Battery?

    Maxell are way on the bottom of the list, somewhere below listening to Justin Bieber 24/7 on a deserted island.

    Can this be done? PPC upgrade on 6100?

    First up, I was reading about DOS card for the 6100 and how it could also be used in Quadra because without the 6100 angled adapter, it uses Quadra style PDS slot. The adapter however won't fit either the 610 because the slot is different. The PPC upgrade I have for Quadra also uses PDS style...

    my Mac Centris 610- caps list for recapping? and PPC ?

    Transfer files at a few k per seconds? SCSI cable and target disk mode would be a lot faster. :D

    what causes LCD rot?

    For lack of better term, I've had a Duo 230 suffer from small pink blob and I've seen a few other like this. For some reason it seems I've seen this only in Powerbook B&W LCD?  Maybe I hadn't seen it elsewhere because non-Mac laptops were often thrown in the trash before it gets old enough...

    Almost new PowerPC upgrade for Centris and Quadra

    Yes it has a 90 degree adapter for C/Q 610.  Still not sure if I want to keep it for my C610 or sell it as a set.

    my Mac Centris 610- caps list for recapping? and PPC ?

    My 610 is my original "new" first Mac, not used or second hand but brand new and it has served me although it's pretty much used for gaming these days. I'd like to keep it for many more years so the obvious issues are caps. Is there a list of caps I need so I can rebuild my Centris? I'm getting...

    Almost new PowerPC upgrade for Centris and Quadra

    Scored this almost new box of powerPC upgrade. The box is distressed and has markers "$10.00" and "Do not open" plus some water stain. But inside is quite nice with books, papers, the PowerPC card and the 610 adapter plus a few dead bugs. The only thing that seems to be missing is the System...

    Spinning Apple menu extension?

    There's also Zipple: http://www.guillemot-kayaks.com/Zipple/ZippleManual.html  I used it on my Centris with animated colored icons.  I lost the bucky ball animation though when Zipple got corrupted after a bad edit and had to be replaced, I couldn't remember where I downloaded it originally.

    CF to IDE adapter has too many pins

    Typical IDE (both 3.5 and 2.5") hard drives and connector has one blocked pin. The CF adapter I got has all 44 pins and won't fit in the connector that has one blocked hole.  Which pin is the right one to snip?  The CF adapter doesn't have pin numbering so I can't even tell where pin 1 for...

    Build your own Raspberry Pi compact Mac!

    At 5", composite won't matter as much unless you're picky and trying for RGBi connection or are going to use B&W only mode like classic Macs. I would like one as well. Maybe one styled like SE or SE/30, I like the ribbed front. Make the drive slot work for SD or micro SD card?
