    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.

    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

    Quadra 800 "Wombat" overclocking - options

    Hey all, As I have Quadra 800 logic board inside Quadra 700 case, it also has DOS compatible card installed with extension to the NuBus ports as well. (Quadra 700 logicboard was battery cancer, and Quadra 800 case shattered into pieces hence two into one - Love the shape of Quadra 700 case, and...

    6100/66 DOS Compatible

    yes and Quadra 700 you will need to modify the case lid & it will need an adapter to reach the I/O ports (its about 3.5" too short) to be able to use that card which I have here. Also; I think Quadra 605 can have that card too (I can't remember 100%.) Cheers AP

    Getting Quadra 950 connected on the internet

    Best thing would be to get ethernet to wifi bridge adapter with usb power. Pending on what mac OS you're using, Open Transport is lot easier, Also AppleShare 3.8.8 from Mac OS 9.2.2 is the best one that works in System 7.5.5 Cheers AP
