Found this PowerBook 1400cs/166 on Kijiji for $100CAD. Has 16 megs of ram, and only a floppy module no CD. Came with Apple branded carrying case. My dad also called me and asked me if I wanted their old iMac late-2013 model and a couple printers. When he dropped them off, something slid and hit...

I installed Tiger via the 4-disk CD installer, then upgraded to 10.4.11. I also just upgraded to Leopard by putting the iBook into target disk mode and installing from my PowerMac G4. Performance seems better but I still do not hear any fans.

Hi y'all, My iBook G4 has overheating issues in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. The fans work in openfirmware, but it seems that as soon as Mac OS X boots all fan activity stops and the iBook soon overheats and will freeze. Is there any way to control fan speed in Tiger. Either via terminal or a gui app...

Thats a sweet deal! I miss selling my Powermac G4, they are awesome machines.

I got it today :-) Its beautiful! Comes with airport, Microsoft office, Adobe Photoshop CS 3 and 4 both legit, the iLife suite, and a external DVD-DL burner. It runs smooth as a kitten!

Well, once my work term resumes in the end of June I am buying a base model Mac Pro, but I really love the look of the G5 iMacs.

Hello all! I am trading my Gateway P-6829h for a iMac G5 1.8GHz with 2Gb of ram and a 150GB hard drive. I know my laptop is better in specs then the iMac, but 1) I *really* miss leopard, and 2) I love the iMac G5 style. Specs of my laptop here: 17" gateway P-6829h 2.0GHz core 2 duo 3GB ram...

Very nice :-) The 12" were always my favorite powerbook models, the 17" comes to a close second.

Yeah, I am familliar with BeBits ( Although, haikuware is news to me). "Back in the day" I used to use BeOS as my daily operating system (Sadly not on a BeBox *tear* ). Haiku is good, although it is not a replacement for actual BeOS, maybe I am just biased. I did a wipe of the system today and...

So, I ended up installing Haiku Alpha 1 on it, works good, but its only temporary ( I will not use wondows for the life of me)

Ah that sucks that Rhapsody probably won't work :-( Also, agg23 I am already a member of that forum, my username there is macusr

For $40 CAD I got a Pentium 3 850MHz, 256MB ram, and 20GB HD, with a 17" viewsonic flat CRT monitor. I am going to install Linux on this beast, or Rhapsody. Pictures: http://yfrog.com/3udscf0032xjx

Nice conquest! I've always liked the early IBM PC's, and OS/2 is friggen' awesome!

Welcome! I don't post nearly as much as I should here, but I do lurk alot. I love this forum!

Today I drove about 75 kilometers to pick up a eMac listed on Kijiji for $160CAD. Its pretty sweet. Although it only had OS X 10.2 installed with 128MB ram, I put in a 256MB stick I had laying around, and slapped 10.4 on it, and now it works great. Its very responsive. I'm thinking on using this...

I'm using it right now on my 400mhz 128MB ram Pismo. It runs speedy, but I just went to finder to double check my specs, and it says " Finder doesn't have enough memory to function" or something

Yep! Thats right. I am typing this on my Powerbook 1400cs 117 with a 40( Yes, 40!)GB hard drive and 32 mb of ram surfing the internet on a Orinoco Silver. I am only going to use this as my computer for a month to see how things go. I am going to check email, browse the web, write my novel, and...

Hmm, I am not good at building that stuff. Computers, yes, but when it comes to electricity, no. :p Thanks a bunch anyways!

Today I acquired a Commodore Vic-20, 8 game cassettes, Commodore Datasette reader, and a Vic-1111 16K Ram Cartridge. Everything is in good shape, except that it has no power supply ( The "newer" 7-pin one. If anyone has a spare... ;) ) I got all of this for free.

@Wackymacs: Nice :D Make sure you take pictures when its finished!
