I've got one just as filthy and it absolutely refuses to come apart, can't even change the pram battery...

I just recapped one of these, and I’m waiting for a cpu to get here so I can test and see if I did it right lol

I remember my best friend bought that exact model in early 2001. He had it for about 4 years and sold it to me for a couple hundred dollars. It was the best laptop I ever had and I had it for maybe 7-8 years. After that I wound up selling it to someone who needed a laptop, but it was still Rock solid and I still kept Windows 2,000 on it which was at the time what we were using at our business place. Thanks for the awesome video. Brings back a lot of good memories. Thank you and God bless you

Id love to take an M1 MacBook Air logic board and put it in one of those old school chassis. I'm surprised there's not more videos on that, its a cool concept.

For us auto owners. Could be so many things. Pressure switches (2) common on 04/05's, ATF fluid, neglected tranny, bad torque converter, too much/little trans fluid, abuse; lots of city driving/blazing hot areas/spirited driving. If it's just your torque converter you could just get it rebuilt beefier for $600-800 instead of replacement. Longer life as heat is what kills trannys.

Very nice.

i got a great condition G3 graphite slot loader 500MHZ from E-waste for free and i simply LOVE it (other than the fact i dont have any CD's or DVD's)

I LIVE THROUGH MOST OF WINDOWS OS?

WELL WHEN I AM USING CREAITVE SOFTWARES I WORK OFF LINE ? NEED TO ADDS OR UPGRADE MY FILM? I CAN ALWAYS GO ON W10/W11 OR LINUX TO FINISH MY PROJETS; I HAD THIS BABY SINCE 2013, DEALING WITH VIRUS WAS DEAD EASY TO GET RID OFF? IN THE WORSE CASE, DBAN FORMAT/ ERASE THE DRIVES, AND EVERYTHINGS WAS BACK ON TRACKS; FOR THE DRIVRERS, SMALL EFFORT TO DO BUT WORTH IT! I HAVE JUST MANUALLY DOWNLOAD THEM! REASON WHY, WHEN U CLEAN ISTALLS, U MUST RE-INSTALLLS THE BIOS STEPS BY STEPS?

Why do all the items in that painting have butts?

Great work! I just purchased a Mac Pro case to build one of these for myself! Is there any way you could send me some kind of wiring instructions on how you re used the front power button?? Thanks very inspiring, can’t wait to start my build!

about a decade late but GREAT VIDEO! does the vacuum table cuase any issues with static electricity when using it?

I had the P5-166 growing up,and yes I remember the misery of opening and working in that damn case.

I have two of them, they are beautiful machines. I used one to stream movies to Apple TV when that was a thing, and I used it to play HD movies, which it can do in 1080p. That was 2011. Now I cannot do anything with it. No internet browsers work very well in 10.5.8. It is still good for booting OS9 for use with old games and super old, but still useful programs. It really cannot do anything at all anymore.

The best thing you can do with this car is buff the paint and take off the front and rear bumper other wise no one will care the condition but will just be excited about the car itself and the age of it

Three wipers!!!

The faded part might very well buff out, at which point I wouldn't worry about the stripe.

That actually a Pentium 4 521.

Where do u get em for free....

Nice doorstop!

halo im from indonesia jakarta and i have powermac the same like that, my questions is in indonesia use voltage 220v is safety when i plug the powe cord or its danger. caus e on power suolay not found switching to change voltage from 11o or 220v

I had a 1.42 eMac and a 1.25 and like you I've never seen one iwth a loud drive. The rattly speaker is sometimes caused by degradation of the foam surround that supports the cone and you can actually get replacement foam surrounds for them and repair them, the iMacs suffer the same issue. Shame about the G3 AIO, I'd imagine it was stored in a damp environment.

I love the idea of using the emac as just a crt display for old games! I didn’t know that was possible. Sorry about the bad luck with the AIO G4, hopefully you’ll figure something out. I wonder if it’s been under water or something

Thanks for sharing!!!

Very envious of your basement and large amount of desk space! And good stuff getting the bins sold - I can imagine selling items individually would have been a nightmare!

Well done on all the work! First thing I did when I moved in was get some proper lighting in the garage and it made such a difference! I am surprised the previous owner put up with the one fluorescent light...

This Jag is my dream car - the cabriolet oh my

I like how the wipers go the wrong way, from a LHD perspective.

The Rover is gorgeous. Until you win the lottery and find an LX450. 😅

That jaguar is absolutely gorgeous 😍

The PowerMac6500 I bought used in 1998 was my first mac. Here in Germany it's was an affordable mid range Mac. Has both, SCSI and IDE - but the IDE-bus only could adress one drive. Maxed it out with a sonnet g3/500, 128 MB RAM, a comm Slot II network Card, an internal SCSI drive and a usb/fw combo Card. I also played with LinuxPPC, but as the performa had a logic board issue it went to trash around 2005 . It was followed by a used G3DT which i maxed out with a G4/800 and 768 MB RAM and MacOS10.4. The G3DT is still running and was my daily driver until 2009.

I just got one from a boneyard. $20, runs really good, a few bugs to work out, but it runs well. I put a voodoo 3 in it, as a secondary card.

Hey I doubt anyone will respond to this comment but as someone new to retro TV collecting I picked up one of these in really good condition but it does not have an external antenna and the main antenna for it I don’t have as far as I can see but what weirds me out is where the main antenna would be is a silver cap if that makes any sense so I have no access to that whole I don’t know if that was a particular option with the TV because it looks intentional like by manufacturing I’m tempted to take it apart and see if I can get that out so I can get a antenna for it off of eBay but I’m not sure if it’s a good idea I would like to get an external turn off for it but I don’t know what type of port that is for the external antenna so I don’t know what type of external antenna I would need to plug into it if you know please let me know

That one is in such bad condition it’s a beautiful TV good find I have one myself in way better shape but to be honest with you that’s not really worth anything except for parts or a display piece even then it’s so messed up

I got one 1.25gh- DP - 512 MB - 160GB - HD-DVD but only have a a VGA adapter the guy just to make music or had band it came in a big music box with Digidesign 888/24 I/O Audio Interface MH068 also Digidesign Universal Slave Driver MH038 Rack Mountable another extra empty box what can i use this for maybe if i sale it

Is it still useful in 2024?

Thank You for your tech vlogs

hype

Those reflections from the lights are trippy! And I like your 1950s exterior color scheme. The fuses are cool, too.

it does have a nice keyboard, very shiny keys. those bois are smooove, i tell ya what

Hi, I'm using a iMac 2010 (High Sierra) as a monitor for my Mac Air 2020. Screen sharing was working fine, but recently keeps dropping off. I've tried a few cables, but still nothing, can you suggest anything?

[Voice of Scotty from engine room] "She can't take much more, cap'n.... she's gonna blow!'

My school had hundreds of these, all running Windows XP. Dell offered a combined monitor stand that you could mount the desktop on and it looked like an all-in-one machine

What exact model this dock is? Should be on the sticker on the bottom, somthing like "Model: PRX". But PRXes are just port replicators, not docks. I just so much want to by it for my own CPX. And, ofc, so much thanks for this video.

Sounds like a b777 takeoff

I have one of these!
