If the box is working, I do not dump its guts for something different but with that being said, I have no problem with enthusiasts swapping cpus, lobos, psus, flashed gpus etc. It’s part of the fun. I’ve swapped parts on a number of my Powermacs to improve their function and have a couple empty...

I have oven thermometers in both ovens in my kitchen. It makes great sense to use one as an affordable tool to verify internal temperature for reflow tasks imo.

Oops wrong thread! 😂 Best of luck to you.

I've got a couple clean imacg3s going out and am curious if anyone has any experience in and thoughts on: Packing materials Shipper Rate tier Neither machine has their orginal box or foam inserts, so was thinking about a thick cardboard box, high density foam on all sides tightly, packed CRT...

I did this with a GPU in my 2006 white 24 inch imac and it did initially work. I got about another 10 months out of it until it went kaput for good at which point I swapped out the GPU. My buddy did another 24 inch imac and it is still working to this day. I think the difference between the two...

I am shopping around for a replacement PSU for my C64. While the OG unit works, I want to retire this (albeit very cool looking) clunker with something new and fresh. I was going to build one but it is sound logical advice to put those funds to a well constructed professionally made unit.

Yeah man, I had to look twice myself. I ended up picking two up but in hind sight I probably should've gotten four. Oh well, dems da breaks.:D

Wow, what a neat haul with a great story. That Apple branded joystick caught my eye - never seen one of those before! :D

Nice find - all about original packaging. Last year, there was a seller on Amazon selling NOS Tangos for a tenner shipped! I picked a few up for future builds & that Purple PCB is just too cool for school.

Hmm, at this point, a Titanium laptop or a 15" DLSD ... a new lobo for my dead 17" SLSD would be great. A leaky PowerPC quad would be cool but not a bucket list item. It's kind of funny to me that I dont so much have an extensive computer bucket list. It's more a bucket computer parts list. :)...

I remember seeing that box on bestbuy & other bigbox shelves around TOTC. "After Dark" always seemed so explicit. :D

Generally speaking, if the box is working fine and doesnt have some horrible external flaw/damage, I try and not modify working machines that physically changes the exterior of their case design. I like to maintain an external stock case whenever possible. Internal componentry is however fair...

Pics of my MB 1985 300D turbo Diesel and my 1996 Dodge Dakota. Wife drives a 2021 Atlas. I think Im going to sell the 300D. It currently lives in my garage eating up my workshop space. Im driving the truck 99% of the time these days, so it is hard to justify it just sitting around...
