    iMac G5 The ultimate Retro Gaming PC

    My kids little G5 game station. I would guess between Starcraft, Diablo, and Warcraft 3, this computer gets 20+ hours of gaming a week.

    Tunnel vision on PB170

    My 170 screen is still sitting on my to-do pile as I follow this discussion. Interested if baking is now not worth the trouble.

    My PB170

    Bottom half is assembled. Not every stand-off survived but I think it will be fine. Time to attack the top half.

    My PB170

    Main battery was a third party replacement and leaking badly. Fortunately, it cleaned up well and the battery bay cover survived. PRAM battery will be replaced during disassembly for screen bake.

    My PB170

    Been tinkering for a few months now and wanted to move on to something out of my comfort zone. Picked up a nice 170 for a decent price. Besides the common tunnel vision and brittle plastics the machine has been fantastic.
