Question: what about schools, when they decide to do upgrades? How difficult is it to get your hands on computers from them?

Action Retro's video was pretty useful. As I said-I did hear the start-up bong, just no picture. The old PS is temporarily back in the G4.

In the early 2000s I had an interesting experience. Riding my bike in New York City, heading back to the train station, I saw a Power PC 7200/120 that had been tossed out. By some freaking miracle, I managed to carry it under one arm while I rode my bike back to the train station. That was NOT...

Hey dude-I've seen your streams with Steve! You've got a nice collection of Macs! I hope to be at VCF East on this side of the pond in a couple of weeks.

He told me he was able to get most of the bookmarks from his last back-up, but alas, he lost some things. 🤷‍♀️

I'll definitely be there. I drove to the Trenton New Jersey computer show (I haven't been to that in almost 30 years). Steve of Mac84 told me it had turned into a rather sad affair, which unfortunately was true. I did pick up a $25 Windows laptop, but the keys are acting a little funky. When I...

Just contacted the seller. Will try and order this soon.

LOL, I haven't ordered the card yet. I've been really busy. I hope to order it soon.

Hi. So, a friend is using Windows 10. During an automatic update for both Windows and Chrome, all his bookmarks were deleted . He says all his Microsoft Office products are gone. Is there any way he can recover what he lost? Thanks.

How did the G4 turn out? Did it have an HD? If you were able to boot it up, what was it running?

THIS. Nailed it.

Well, folks have to do what they feel is best. Speaking for myself, I would PREFER to be nice. But I went through some incredibly dark periods of my life (facing poverty, possible homelessness), where some people defecated on me because of my personality. Did it harden me? Yeah. Not to the point...

I'll start. Lessee... It's been a long time!! Late 1990s?? I got a Centris 650 that way in the Tribeca area of New York City. A number of buddies and I were notified that a company was getting rid of a lot of computer stuff. We went down there. A light rain was in progress. There were A TON of...

Unfortunately, the hard lesson I've learned is: if you're too nice, people will walk all over you. I'm terribly sorry for those of you who were scammed. 😞

🙄

Well, that appears to be what Action Retro used in the video, and it worked for him. It wouldn't hurt to try. :)

Actually, this one should be better, yes...

Action Retro's video, at 17: 24: I should try getting a stock VGA card and see if that works, like at the Amazon link below...

That's where the problem lies. With the old power supply, the right video connection works. With the new power supply, it doesn't. I hear the boot-up bong, but no picture. At first, I thought the card was messed up, but when I put the old PS back in, everything worked again. So-you say the...
