Who sticks a sticker right on an LCD screen? What idiots.

My Sawtooth (500mhz, 1.75gb, 10.5.4) never has free RAM. Let me explain. It is running Leopard, apache, mysql, and TorrentFlux (Python). When I first boot the machine, 1.5GB of RAM is available. If I sit and watch it on 'top' or Activity Monitor, free RAM steadily decreases by about 5-10mb...

Thanks for the link -- I guess what I'm really asking is: Can I put this http://cgi.ebay.com/Apple-PowerMac-G4-Quicksilver-800-MHz-processor-HS_W0QQitemZ190244586323QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item190244586323&_trkparms=72%3A392%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 In...

I'm possibly interested in upgrading the CPU in my Sawtooth (500mhz now). I don't want to buy one of the 3rd party upgrade cards -- I'd prefer to buy a stock CPU that was pulled when it's original machine was upgraded or parted out for price reasons. My question is, since the Sawtooths max'ed...

You shouldnt need an upgrade to run Unreal Tournament -- I played it all the time on a 400mhz iMac with an 8mb Rage with no problems at all.

Right I know, was just clearing my name as there are some people who would seriously lose respect if I didn't have a scanner, if you can believe it...

I scan at one of my department's labs when I need to.

I dunno about scans - I don't have a scanner on me. I could take some pictures though.

I just found a really cool booklet (even cooler to me as I'm a graphic design major) in great condition entitled "Guidelines for Using the Apple Logo, Signatures, and Corporate Typeface" It's exactly what it says - design guidelines for the apple trademarks. It starts with a cool history of...

one thousand (as an American, I was confused by your use of a period (1.000) as we use a comma (1,000) for whatever reason) is far too much for a 128k Mac as far as im concerned - unless maybe there's something very special about it.

Holy crap!

Are they simple(ish) to install? I'm really going for silent.

Sorry to unearth this thread, but would it ruin my SE to disable the fan if it was only going to be running HappyPlusClock?

Also, freaking wow -- almost a week after I posted the wanted ad to Freecycle, I just got an offer for a 1400c. Love it.

Well, the portable won't boot. I know it has something to do with their notoriously weird "I won't boot without a charged battery" behavior -- but I have yet to find any real instructions online on how to get around it. Any ideas?

Holy crap! *runs to make a System 7 boot floppy*

Yep -- figured out those mysteries this afternoon when I went rummaging through. The Duo has a "broken" hinge (looks to be just a cosmetic problem) but the Portable is in beautiful shape. Haven't gotten a chance to boot it, unfortunately, espescially since (I think) it only takes 800k disks.

Okay, I picked this up today, and I am crazy stoked. There were several surprises. Here's the list: PowerMac 6100 in original box This doesn't have a hard drive, and I haven't opened it up to see what kind of RAM/etc it has. The guy mentioned it has an "A/V card". We shall see what that is...

Nice! Gotta love that -- probably got excluded from many search results because of the misspelling. My lombard was $80, and I thought that was a good deal!

Whoah woah was the G5 free? If so, that's insane.
