Well now it's already getting hard for the order in which I got them... But I think these were the next ones: Our school had iMac G3 333 Mhz Tray Loading, and a teacher's iMac G3 500 Mhz Graphite. As the last one was Nr.28, it makes me think that this was the total amount of iMacs, which is...

Wow now that's a score!!! I already have problems stocking ~45 Macs + a bit less than the same amount of other computers.

By the way, I also got its original keyboard, a 2-button mouse which looks a bit like the original Pro Mouse and also its (white) power cable.

And here this second G3. :)

Indeed, this seems to be a common problem. :-/ But luckily most of mine are working. "Hopefully you can ask around here for details. " That's what I'm trying to do, but it doesn't seem that many users did such repairs...

Hi guys  :) I'm finally starting my own "conquests" topic. I'll regularly update it, by posting one Mac after the other. And also try to keep the following posts shorter than this one. First of all, I'm Nicolas, 18, from Switzerland. Macintosh trash-picker and computer hoarder since 2009. ...

Asking again if anybody has experience with repairing/recapping these PSUs? :)

My clamshell's yoyo-adapter was damaged and repaired, but badly and in a quite unsafe way. Luckily(!) I found 2 of these in trash which will make 1 good one. :) I you look at the 145 adapters, they seem physically indestructible... But the later models, nope.

As often, older stuff is sturdier – in my opinion.

Hahaha yes, I imagine! :D Same... Gotta save these old Macs!

Congrats! :)

Thanky for your answer, Macdrone. Basically, you mean this? https://68kmla.org/forums/index.php?/topic/23871-vintage-hd-stickysolutionlazymans-40mb-80mb-160mb-quantum-prodrive-els/ Btw, when connecting this HDD, it makes no sound at all, dead, like it had no power.

Hi folks I managed to resurrect another trash-saved Mac which was sitting around here. Before, at the first try (probably after ~10 years without being in use), it chimed and showed a flashing question mark. I then tried some OS 9 CDs I had lying around and also a Power Macintosh G3 one (not...

Nobody?

Yeah I'd avoid too much moisture. Where I keep my Macs, there moisture isn't an issue and I also avoid extreme temperature changes. A dry, dark cupboard is perfect for IMO – for storage. :) Nicolas

A powerful tower needs to proudly show its presence :p

Make a short video, that's easier than describing a sound. :p

Some nice stuff! The 5500 DE is interetsing. I'll definitely make a similar topic when I get my iMac back. Cheers, Nicolas

Good find, as far as I can tell. :p I'd already be happy with a working SE/30. |)

Congrats for the second time, this MDD especially was worth it. :) I think I had seen it but then forgot about it.
