A lot has changed since the last post: 1. I got another Winbook, this time a color model with an SX CPU. 2. I made a section on my website for these, with just about every bit of info you'd need to know about them. Check it out here! https://macdat.net/pc/winbook/486series_home.html

Ok, that's insanely cool. How do you make those? Did notice one mistake though - the LC variants do have MMUs, just no FPU.

Awesome. Mind if I put that info on my website somewhere as well?

Took me a while but I found the video I was looking for: Original Blueberry board, proven to work. The guy in this video added a few bodge wires - I’m assuming this is because he didn’t type in the open firmware commands needed to enable XGA? Did he just hard wire it instead due to not knowing...

I've never heard of any panels in those computers that aren't compatible - to my knowledge, many LCDs started using a standard connector around that time. As for the resolution change, I'm not sure.

Thank you for the very detailed explanation! I think I’ll be ordering myself an LG display cable soon. I’ve already got a spare 12” iceBook display to use as a donor.

I won’t be able to make it due to schedule conflicts unfortunately, lines right up with finals in school and I really can’t afford a weekend trip then. I am aiming to make it to the swap meet in June though!

I guess I shouldn’t be too surprised about the Quantum drives working - those Macs appeared to have been stored exceptionally well over the years. That IIsi that TDNC fixed up was the cleanest one I had ever seen. The logic board caps looked the cleanest I’d ever seen, and the ELNA caps in the...

Are you telling me that every single one of those Quantum hard drives worked??!! Wow. Also, you’ve got to be the first person in years that’s successfully shipped a 5200 series Power Mac without damage. Good work!

The big issue with comment link stuff is that they just can’t make everyone happy… People complained for years about the comment bots that promote scams in every big youtuber’s comment section, calling on YouTube to get better filtering that catches them, then others complain that it’s too...

If someone has not put any info there, there's a solid chance that they simply don't want to be contacted. I don't have any email set for my channel in that way for that specific reason, it opens me up to a bunch of spam and other garbage.

Looks like @Mac84 made it:

You guys recap P4 boards? I feel bad for you, it is NOT fun. Oh, and also, thank you for the services you provide to our communities!

This is such a beautiful system that you've made! Love it.

Believe it is caps. You’d have to ask LaPorta on 68kmla, he’s actually recapped his and at least one other as well.

Just saw this thread, seems like the perfect thing to put on my website as a list! Would be useful to know for sure. So far I've gathered: IIci IIsi Q700 Q/C650 Q800 Any others only do sync on green?

These are also starting to get ready for a recap nowadays - I still need to do so to mine. If you want more consistent contrast behavior, that may be what you have to do at this point.

That’s @Javmast3r’s video. Haven’t seen it yet, but it looks great in the thumbnail!

I think dosdude1 and hrutkay mods used a blueberry for their G4 mod.

Hmm. That is cutting it awfully close, and OS X does do some 3D stuff, right? Maybe not. My main worry would be that the logic board/open firmware version would simply refuse to output. XGA video. It had to gain a reputation that it’s a mod for the 2nd gen models only for a reason, just is...
