So I picked up this G4 Dual 1GHz MDD tower yesterday for under $50. It had no HD, RAM, or Video card. So without that all it wouldn't boot, the LED power light would go on for a sec, but nothing. So I rearranged the power-on board (it was unscrewed) and the machine sprang to life, fans spun, but...

Sorry to bump such an old topic - but if I get a chance I may add to the already scanned in sections. If you'd like any particular item/accessory's flyer to be scanned let me see what I have and I'll get to it. -Steve :)

I went to a junk store today, they collect a lot of stuff from people. I found an Apple LaserWriter Select 360 in the box! (Box in great condition) and an ImageWriter II (Just like I had when I was young) both for $10 each! Then I found some DVDs, one was an Apple iMac 10.2 Restore DVD. Going...

Ack!! How silly of me! I completely overlooked that it could be just an odd looking NuBus/PDS-like card and due to the size of the card (and my Mac LC sitting not too far away) I immediately thought it was a Mac PDS type board. Whoops! Thanks for the reminder... :lol:

Wow! :) That is an awesome find, thanks for sharing the photos with us!

I have the same scanner model. I think I may have the software somewhere. Last time I needed it the UMAX web site actually had the download for it, too bad it looks like they don't anymore. :(

Hello everyone, I got a box of parts not too long ago, mostly PC stuff, so I was surprised to find this inside. Looks like some kind of Audio Out PDS card. There's also a 25-pin connector around the size of the old Apple monitor ports. It says Apfel rm96abct2.5 13128 on the card. Any idea of...

Hello everyone, I just picked up what seems to be a black & white model QuickCam by Connectix with an old Mac serial connection. But, I can't seem to find any software or drivers for it on the web at all. Whatever links I find seem to be dead, I did a search here but unfortunately I didn't...

So I visited a Salvation Army thrift store in PA that I tend to frequent. Usually in their electronics section in the basement only have monitors and printers. So this time when I saw a Mac tower I was excited! It was a Performa 6400 tower which seemed to be in good condition. I looked on the...

Awesome! I'd love to know when you get this, I'd enjoy a download of a disk image. :D

Well I was using an Apple Low-Power AC adapter by mistake, which looks identical to the PowerBook AC adapter I have. I believe it happened both times... however I may be incorrect. I'll play around with it next time. However it only happens once in a while, but it works okay, so not too big of...

So the title pretty much explains it all. Sometimes when I insert a disk into the PowerBook 180, the Mac restarts! Seems okay when it does, and it only happens randomly. Odd huh? The only other thing I've noticed is that sometimes on startup I'll get some lines on the screen... but they...

Actually I have successfully gotten this little PowerBook online via an Asante EN/SC adapter. Works great! :) Thanks

Thanks for the idea! I just carefully removed the guts of the battery now, yay. :)

Actually their Yo-Yo adapter worked fine, it was just the cable going from the adapter to the wall that's the problem. Luckily I have a third-party "mickey mouse" style cable from monoprice.com for under $2 a while ago (search for '3 prong AC power cable') and it worked fine! I have three...

Hey guys, Somebody here on Craigslist listed a PowerBook G3. They said it was from the year 2000 and that it no longer worked since the battery was dead. For $15 I decided to drive 30 minutes to pick it up. It turns out their AC adapter was busted, thankfully the PowerBook was fine! :) What...

So I was with a friend this weekend and he mentioned there was a Micro Center store near by, now I had no idea they had a store in NJ so I was thrilled. I was even more thrilled to find a Sonnet Encore ZIF G3/G4 to G4 500MHz upgrade card for $31, which was discounted to $24 at the register. It...

Hello everyone, I have a PowerBook G3 Wallstreet with 9.2 installed. 233MHz model with 256MB of RAM. The machine runs fine with OS 9, but I decided I'd install Mac OS X. I read that Jaguar (10.2) is officially supported with the machine, so I decided to install that. So I booted up from my...

Alright thanks! Then I'm going to post it for a buck on Craigslist and see if anybody takes it. Of course it's free for any member here that wants to get it from NJ. Thanks :beige:

Hello everyone, I have a Macintosh SE that I was going to put up for sale on craigslist cheap or free since it seems to have an issue. When turned on the hard drive light blinks and you can hear it trying to boot. A Happy Mac will display in the middle, but there is gibberish all around it. I...
