Default Macs mods
I have a few macs that I plan on upgrading... big-time.

Victim #1: PowerMac G3 B&W.
Victim #2: iMac G3 Lime Tray-loading.
Victim #3: PowerMac 5300/100 LC.

All: Need mobos, ram, hdd, etc.

AIOs: Need LCDs. This will reduce weight. I am fairly confident I can dremel the CRT area flat to accomidate LCD.

TBH, I have started on all three.

Pix to come!

DEFINITELY intrigued - I have an iMac G3 (Blueberry I think) slot load at home and I plan to replace the screen with a 15" LCD and am hopefully looking at a mini-itx zotac board to replace the guts

I have the iMac g5, yeah.


The motherboard is shot, though.



My current plan is to insert a video controller card.

OK, updates:

The iMac G3: I have plans for it. Just no 15" monitor to fit it.
The PowerMac: I have a board planned for it. Just, I broke a foot (rageface). And I need a couple other more new parts
The iMac G5: Need to get an LCD controller with speaker and mic support. It's gonna be my LAN party monitor.



Ohhhhh, the iMac G3 is going to be a NIGHTMARE to SketchUp... *shivers*

You mean 15" CRT monitor for the G3??? and for the imac G5, you're looking for something like this (some guy is selling it for $40)?

Same guy is also selling a HP SH249 like this one for $50
