ibook g3 clamshell

As discussed in another thread (What chargers work with iBook G3 clamshell?) I have now confirmed it is possible to use a simple headphone jack adapter to step-up the size of the center-pin on the G3 / G4 Power Supply for the more common White iBook G3 / G4 and PowerBook G4 series. I found a...

To be blunt, I’ve been torn between posting this on the Server/Networking sub-forum or over here, but as it focusses mostly on legacy equipment and Ethernet protocols, the balance seems tipped to favour here. [Mods: you’re welcome to move this over to the other sub-forum if this more...

Hi. Longtime, but occasional reader here. So I've owned a couple of Rev. C clamshells (an indigo and a 466 key lime) over the last dozen years. With the latter, I restored it partially earlier this year — adding a 128GB SSD, a DVD-RW (which mates to the original bezel), and an LG XGA 1024x768...

Hi all, I have always wanted an iBook clamshell as I love their retro design, and have just seen one a graphite 466 SE on eBay, with Airport and upgraded RAM (I assume to the max 576MB but not sure) running OS X Tiger. I don't really have any particular need for it but I just fancy one (I...

So I got my hands on one, and this is another PowerPC machine I really wanted. I was very lucky to get this one for just €30. A Tangerine iBook G3 Clamshell. Now, it does have the sadly very common cracks in the handle and around the Apple logo on the front bezel. The design just made this...
