got a box of NOS 3M 1.44MB floppies. about 50% failed formatting

For a completely off in left field thought, thinking of serial connections. What about one of those RS-232 to WiFi thiggies? http://serialio.com/products/mobile/wifi/WiSnapAAA.php If there is some way to get it to work... imagine being in Starbucks with an old Powerbook connected to the...

only if you're tinkering with the airbag system, not something I'd touch either. I'm talking engine ECU. people monkey with those all the time for performance upgrades. I've repaired one, it was water damaged (clogged sunroof drain = water leaking directly onto the ECU) Owner got it...

lucky... been watching eBay for one, just a bunch of AAUI adaptors BLAH. Think one of those is the ticket to put my plus online, just for telnet really. but I don't even have a keyboard yet so I can wait to find one for a while yet :)

I can't find the specs on the speakers to find the exact size, so you will want to measure them first... these may work. http://www.speakerworks.com/2_inch_speaker_repair_kit_p/swk2.htm really the only way to fix disintegrated speaker surrounds is to replace the surround with new one. did...

there is defiantly some $$ in repairing automotive ECUs too... have you seen how much a reman ECUs are!? GACK.

I found the opposite, mostly just automatic 900s still around, the 5 speed manual in those, particularly in a Turbo is very failure prone. Even my mom's. 50k mi and second gear syncro started to go, bad because she's a super smooth gentle driver, doubt the turbo ever got a chance to spool...

One I had only operated off the battery, I could hear it boot but it never displayed anything on the screen (backlight lit up). sold the memory card, gave away the rest. Going to stick to the 180 and one day 180c. |)

if there are keyboards involved count me as interested. 8-)

180c, nice! going to get one of those someday ;)

SO I came across an ad for a Apple ADC flat screen. price was right so I inquired(figured it was either a Tube one or 15". reply I got was, it was last used on a G4 mini, don't know if it will work with anything newer. huh... so I bit. ended up being a 17" studio(LCD) with an ADC to...

do NOT use a 20v powersuppy with a PB165! you'll fry it! standard supply for the 165 is a 7.5v 3.0A center positive.

That would be me. Only thing is I don't think you can get a copy from spotify anymore, if you already have it.... or find a way to get it... is the only way. But I can say it is still working. Also, running 10.5.8 I can still use pandora. just tested it on my son's computer(iBook G4)...

of course how else do you think I got it to talk... Appletalk that is.

here's a shot while getting OS 7.6 downloaded off my file server via FTP Got it all configured and now I no longer have to use FTP, I can AFP to my 10.5 server WOO! 8-)

Yes the Powerbook mounts sharepoints from 10.5 server no problem and I can transfer files no problem. I just tried regular 10.5 only got as far as selecting the sharepoint get a type 1 error for application "unknown" every time. So it appears only 10.5 server will work. Makes me happy, I...

7.6, OT 1.3, AppleShare 3.8.3 on my PB180 with Asante EN/SC I can appleshare over the network to my G4 mini running OS 10.5 server WOOT! Printing still doesn't work(sharing my printers w/10.5 server since neither are appletalk capable), can see the printers, but it never prints using...

figured out the crashing. parental controls, content filter. I have it 'off', but it still runs when the parental controls are turned on for a user. it's all supervised use of the computer so there is no issue of him viewing sites he's not allowed on. But after a few more crashes it...

:p looks decent on a 15" flatscreen(even though the picture is crap)

Yup, I have the one Asante mini EN/SC. I'll try binhexing it... other thing I'd love to have figured out, in classic networking is a MacIP router software that'll work on a moderish(OSX) mac. that way I could use the Appletalk to Ethernet box I've got to get the plus online too. :)
