Last night I was trying to get to sleep and started to think about old plastic models that are now being re-released by new manufacturers. From that, my brain took a lateral leap to PowerBooks. Were the cases injection molded? If so then like the above mentioned plastic models, are the molds...

Hello, trying to find a working download link for High Sierra. Have tried a few different ones that don't work. Any help is appreciated!!

Can anyone point me to where I can find software for this modem?

I just acquired another PowerBook 180 and want to clean the ball contacts. The trouble is that the ring holding the ball in refuses to rotate. Given how brittle this plastic is, how should I go about rotating it safely? Suggestions very welcome!

Woohoo, I just received 2 PowerBook G4's. One will be going to a young friend as her first computer! They are in remarkably good shape for their age. Very clean machines.

What would I need to look for to get wireless running on the G4 733MHz Digital Audio? There appears to be a connector on the motherboard, and an aerial wire connector as well.

Does anyone have a working link for this?

Which version would you folks recommend for a 733MHz G4 running 9.2.2?

As stated in the Conquests forum, I recently came into possession of a 733MHz Digital Audio G4. It had no hard drive, no monitor, no keyboard and no mouse. My PC monitor looks to work fine on it, the PC mouse as well. I have some old IDE drives (30 -40GB) so I should be fine there. What I don't...

Hello, I have a PB180 that fails to do anything when the power button is pushed. As recently as 2 months ago, it powered up and booted just fine. Is there a "checklist" to go through to troubleshoot this?

I am trying to install PageMaker 3.0 on a PowerBook 180 (System 7.5.5) and the install process stops at random points but never finishes. any ideas? I have copied the disks and they seem alright. The Install manual states System 4.1 and Finder 5.5 as minimums, so that seems OK. I have plenty of...

I asked this on another board, but no luck so far, so I'll repeat my request here: Hi all, Here's a blast from the past! I have a PowerBook 180, and an old (read ancient!) copy of PageMaker 3.0. The install proceeds normally until just at the end. I get a message that the Pagemaker file is...

Just got one of these at a thrift shop for $9.00 CAD [:D] ]'> and it boots fine with only one dead pixel on the screen. The main battery is stone dead, and I presume the PRAM battery is as well, because the time displayed in the title bar changes randomly. Does anyone have a link to the...
