    Do you have a list that you can pass along? I have the same PSU, if you would care to share.

    1710av fading away (any hope for saving, or retrofit?)

    I did not even know this 'Rejuvenation' was a thing. Yesterday I saw one of the CRT rejuvenators for $150 and thought it might be a useful acquisition given the aging population of CRTs. Are these a scam? Do they really work? If so, for what use cases?

    I got one of those just about a month-and-a-half ago (the machinery damage letter) - I only lost a couple of replacement floppy gears out of several that I ordered.

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I love those monitors - the rounded controls and the overall look of the monitor dressed up anything they were paired with! That is one of my favorite background patterns as well.

    Here? In a small town?

    I did not see it mentioned - did it come with the keyboard and mouse included? If not, I would definitely hit up the "Apple Collector" to provide you with ones (gratis) for the system you bought.

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I have a M1212 to use (also a couple M0401s, but I prefer the stand on the 1212) with it, but I also have a Dell 2007FPb that I use as a general purpose monitor with my Macs. I can also see why they didn't add any VRAM to it back in the day.

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I have the floppy drive cleaned/lubed (solid, flexible gear, so I get to keep the original!). There were SO many dust bunnies inside the plastic enclosure it was hard to see the drive in spots. ;) I also removed and readied the yellowed panels (front pieces and side cover) to be retrobrited...

    Scored a Q950 today!

    Yes, I got only one, but it turns to all the stops, which indicates that it matches the machine's barrel? I think it is number 064... I'm going to dig out the top bracket tonight (along with the HD and floppy) and also try to see if there are any VRAM sticks in it. Thanks all!

    Power Mac G3 Beige Desktop – CD-ROM door sticking.

    You might have this sorted already, but it is either broken plastics or (more likely) it is just inserted wrong into the attachment guide (plastic frame, under the CD), You should be able to just push gently upward on the middle tab that is protruding slightly under the CD and pull the CD...

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I have always wanted a Quadra 950, but they were always out of reach, especially lately, with the elevated prices and potentially disastrous shipping. So today, I drove three hours to Alabama, to avoid the shipping issue, and paid an acceptably low price for one. It has fantastic plastic (it...

    The Complete Book of Macintosh Assembly language Programming Vol I

    I'm still sorting out how best to capture the images - here are some examples that I took (still tuning the angles of the camera, light position, etc.) 1) taken with the camera and adjusted for trapezoid (I think that is where the RH focus issues come from) and lighting 2,3) vFlat scans -...

    The Complete Book of Macintosh Assembly language Programming Vol I

    I finally got my book scanner built, and dialing in the exact lighting and camera placement is taking a bit of time, but I am getting closer and had some individual shots during testing that are perfect except for a small reflection from a seam that I need to mask.

    Macintosh IIfx tries to start but won't catch

    Yes, Polymer and Tantalums are the popular choices - for the capacitors indicated, replace them with a capacitance of 47uF and a voltage of 16V or higher. On the board there are pads for both tantalums and the SMD caps. Cleaning up after removing the old capacitors is key - the cap goo can be...

    Macintosh IIcx + PowerCD 600e = are they compatible?

    I was always just happy to have the 600e work without needing a driver for it, so I never paid any attention to the speed (my first CD drive was an NEC back in the day and required one). How would I check the speed - would one of the hardware tests verify that?

    Is this too much $ and work for a noob.

    It sure looks like a crack down the front of the center to fix - not fun for a beginner and staring at that all the time would not be for me. I can only see the picture someone posted here, not the backside with connectors that was posted on FB, so I don't know the condition, but it can...
