I do hope they let you keep at least one Mac on the active duty roster, though.

Most likely it'll be the 1400, due to its size. -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 7

I broke one once by prying it apart Have fun!

There's a how-to in a issue of MacAddict that tells you how to turn it into a pre-amp for a non-Apple mic, and it goes through how to take it apart and stuff. -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 7

I have one from a beige G3 that I think should work fine in there...and since it's running straight OS X, the floppy is useless and pointless. -Chad My Preciouses: Mystic CC (36/500/enet) 2x SE/30s (16/80 & 32/230) Classic II (10/70) Plus w/ HD20 (1/20) Beige G3 MT (512/4000) PM 7300/180 (330/4300)

The Lightning Stalker Full Member USA 747 Posts	Posted - 04 Feb 2003 : 20:30:21 Man, I could use a motherboard from a beige G3. Not enough money, though. quote: I know.

I always hated that funky phono plug. Apple didn't properly deflux the circuit board in there, either. I love the way it looks on top of the monitor, though!
