    Buyee Warning

    Yep same here - I have stopped buying from Buyee - same issue what your having.. Sad isn't - I've argued and argued - they don't care - basically padlock and its you taking the risk. I would like to see if there is alternative site that is same as Buyee that would have good stuff on it. Cheers AP

    Mac Mini Base OS Install ?

    Thats Mac Mini 3.1 I believe Because AppleID in El Cap is too old/won't be accepted because Apple is trying to force you to upgrade. Just skip it and you can add AppleID once you have signed in Finder. Cheers

    Problems with buying from Japan using Buyee

    I did have an issue last year with Buyee - it was Sonnet PowerPC G3 500mhz CPU and it ended up in warehouse and I was stuck there. Same reason "semiconductors substrates" too. I was able to resolve by forwarding to a friend in Japan's address and he was able to forward to me without any issues...

    Powerbook G3 Lombard stiff hinge fix

    Ive done the same with you - on PowerBook G3 wallstreet & PDQ, iBook Clamshell & iBook plus PowerBook 1400 as well - as soon you feel stiffness its time to oil it otherwise you will end up damaging the hinges to begin with!. Cheers AP

    Last thing you did with your G5?

    The last thing I did with a G5 - was preparing for sale. It was a dual 2.5ghz and I felt bad selling it but I just didn't have a use for it. I also have Dual 1.8ghz sitting under the workbench doing nothing - It is something I wont be touching unfortunately as I'd rather use G4 MDD. Cheers
