I fought through my PB 540’s tunnel vision and got a high score of 142 on Flappy Mac! Can anyone here score higher?

Satanic Mac Club!

Rumours of my death are greatly exaggerated...!

Today, I swapped this old clunker out of my PowerBook 180c, replacing it with a BlueSCSI. The 180c is a lot faster now!

Visited my best friend a few weeks ago. "I have a few old Macs if you want them". Me:
After a dusty trip into his attic I have a nice haul. More details on the others coming . . .but:
My first find was a Power Mac G4 MDD Dual 1ghz with a matching Apple Studio Display

Completed: (Updated)

• Power supply was dead so I sent it off to acxelectronics on eBay for an excellent and fast repair. (OK I was lazy on this one)
• Replaced the old noisy CPU fan with a new quiet, but powerful Silenx IXP-76-18 - 120x38mm 18dBA 90CFM hooked to 12V Power Supply connector
• Maxed out RAM to 2GB
• Replaced static and distorted heat damaged speaker with the OEM part found on eBay
• Replaced spinning drive with a Samsung SSD via an IDE to SATA adapter.
• Installed 10.4.11 Tiger.
• Added 2nd SSD for Carbon Copy Cloner system backup: (Due the limitation of the PATA to SATA adapter board this did not work on the 100 MHz bus as a second drive, so I put the second SSD on the 66Mhz bus)
• Period correct keyboard and mouse
• Swapped out dual G4 1GHZ processor daughterboard for dual 1.25Ghz card (modest upgrade)

To Do:

• Upgrade video card (Current ATI Radeon 9000 is OK, but @Action Retro inspired me to go faster

My *Zip* IIGS is running
fast and cool

Finally got a working PB G4 DLSD it *almost* fast enough to browse the internet! (posting this from it)

Let me know!

And the paperwork is done - I'm employed again!

And so begins the slow process of rebuilding an Apple Lisa!

Anyone want a Power Macintosh 6100/66 AV?

Thank you @retr01 for the awesome profile photo!

The Big Mess ‘O Wires Wombat is awesome. Now I can take the brilliant Unicomp mechanical keyboard with me on my classic Mac gaming.

Sidebar content has been marginally expanded as due to the amount of activity, content was getting lost.

Power Mac 9600 has joined my team. The Mac I longed for when I was young. Apple has bestowed the glory of just 3 months.

Gotta love it when a new board design works on the first try

Wow I just realized there's a place to add a photo for documents, boy do I feel silly.

Salute
I actually only joined so that I could 'Like' Kay Koba's latest shipping update post, but...
Oh my! -This universe is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

THE FLYBACK HAS BEEN LOCATED! For some reason the bag it was in, had been put in the 4th floor kitchen/canteen/bar area of the office i work in...uhhh...why, i don't know.

However, that means that fingers crossed, the Plus will be fixed soon!
