    putting paracord on the charging cable

    Obviously not limited to PPC laptops, but I just scored a long lusted-after machine, a 17" AlBook G4. I also have a 65w charger coming, and I remember from having an iBook back in the day how weak the charging cord can be. I'm not planning on abusing it of course, but if there's something I...

    Plopping an SSD in a B/W

    I'm asking mostly as a sanity check...I bought the 120GB SATA to IDE kit (actually 2, one is going in my iMac G3 as soon as I get up the nerve to take it apart :D ) for my rev 2 blue and white, it looks like the former owner opted for the ultra scsi raid card and one of the drives is currently...

    7100/80 video and adapters

    I recently got some vram sticks for the 2mb PDS video card (thanks again SiliconInsider!) so now it can display millions of glorious colors...at 640x480. due to how I was reading the capability chart I thought maxing it out would let it get up to 1024x768, but apparently only the 4mb card can do...

    Hi ! medium-sized headache induced

    I recently acquired a 7100/80 with a bad HD and a Performa 636CD for some nostalgia times and also because I'm a minor collector of vintage comps, I've also got a PB G3 Lombard and a clamshell iBook that I thought was dead but just had a bad battery (surprise surprise) Even further back I got a...
