PB 1400 CDROM question
I have a 12x CDROM Apple Model M3628(TEAC CD211E) from a PB 1400c/166. The drive suffered damage when the laptop fell off a table. (PB is fine). The faceplate tray and laser are fine, but the locking mechanism plastics (the thing that locks the tray in during cd operation) has broken loose and I am cannot seem to be able to fix it. Is there somewhere to obtain a repair guide of some sort or is this thing headed for the dumpster? P.S. Would another TEAC mechanism (such as the CD224e, a 24x drive) work in place of the original drive also work if I cannot get it fixed? Any help is greatly appreciated.

FS - Many portables that must go
(This is the fourth try at posting this over the last week to the PowerBook list. The first ones still haven't appeared. My apologies if this appears multiple times.) Lots of Duos and PowerBooks looking for new homes! Everything must go. If it isn't sold, it will be trashed. So... If you see something you want but don't like the price, **MAKE AN OFFER** - I won't be offended at any offer, and you'll probably get it. Other than I'm sure that I would like at least a little cash (or in some cases, a promise that it will be put to good use or even a gift certificate for a dozen glazed Krispy Kremes or a peach pie from Baker's Square g) it is really hard to say what is the right price. I just need to have as much of this gone by next weekend as I can. Whatever is left by then will be disposed of. I have prices listed but I don't have time to do a lot of research for accuracy - my prices may be right or not (probably not), hard to say - but I listed prices anyway since people seem to like seeing them. If the price says $80 but your budget will only handle $40, make me an offer. You never know. Trades are possible, but I'm not looking for a ton of stuff. See my want list at the bottom... Figure shipping will be apprx. $15 for a PowerBook, $30 for a complete Duo kit. All shipping via USPS. All items are guaranteed to not be DOA. There is no guarantee on any batteries (main or PRAM) or internal modems. I haven't tested the modems, and all batteries, given the age, are almost always dead by now anyway. Still, unless otherwise noted, I will include a battery in case it might work or in case you want to try to rebuild it. Here's the list of what I have and again, make an offer if you want something but don't like the price. I'd rather get something than toss 'em in the dumpster, which is where they are headed otherwise.

Re.: PowerBook 3400 / 200
==0 ORIGINAL MESSAGE 1. On one side of my powerbook there is a receptacle for my floppy and i imagine that's where the cdrom drives resides too. Now, on the opposite side of the power book is another receptacle with a small opening (compared to the floppy receptacle on the opposing side), what is this second receptacle used for? A few ideas are coming to mind but I'd somebody who knows to clear the air for me. ==0 MY FIRST ANSWER 1. That is the ADB port, you connect your external keyboard and mouse there, or my QuickCam, that takes its power from it, as did some old 33.6 Kbps Supra external modems. ==0 THE LOGICAL ANSWER FROM centurytel: The other side should be just big enough for the PCMCIA cards that you can get for your computer - such as ethernet and modem cards 0 Of course! Silly me! I read small opening but forgot floppy like. I stand corrected. Best regards. Hugo Diaz [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

USB peripheral options on OS 8.1
I remember the first iMacs shipped with 8.1, so some USB devices, like Apple's keyboards and mice definitely work. Anyone know or use other USB devices, like printers, scanners, etc? I want to see about downgrading a 1400c from 8.5.1 for speed and adding a USB PCMCIA card to it to say, use a newer USB printer with it. Thanks for any tips, links or ideas on this, everyone!

Re: USB peripheral options on OS 8.1
Hmm, last I heard, there were no 16-bit PCMCIA USB cards for Macintosh. They all require CardBus slots. The 1400c does not have CardBus. Thus, you cannot use USB on a 1400c. Otherwise, I also seem to recall that the OS 8.1 USB extensions ONLY work on the iMac. That is, I'm pretty sure that Apple's USB extensions for PC Cards and PCI cards (as opposed to the on-board USB on an iMac) require Mac OS 8.5+ Peace, Drew -- Author of ClassicStumbler email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] web: http://homepage.mac.com/alk/ Want to know if your neighbor has Wi-Fi?

Powerbook 140 Dilemma
Hi. I posted awhile back (months ago) on problems with my Powerbook 140. I put that computer away for awhile, thinking it was dead, only to reboot it tonight, and discovered something strange: Before, it looked like the screen was dead. Now, the screen's not dead - there's a greytone box with the mouse cursor fully operable within it (the box takes up most, if not all, of the screen). However, the OS (and I can't quite remember /what/, for the life of me, it is) doesn't want to start up. I just have the mouse, and the grey box. Is there any way I can fix this? Please let me know, and thanks in advance. :) Kathryn L. Shelly - Kate MHC Class of '03 Somebody said that it happens all over the world -- And I do believe that it's true.

Sometimes the internal SCSI hard drive gets hung up and hangs the booting process. Since the Mac looks at the floppy first, before ever looking at the hard drive, you can sometimes get things back to normal that way. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Powerbook 140 Dilemma
Booting from a floppy... if I don't have the floppy (which I don't), that'll be difficult. And I doubt my campus helpdesk will have something that old. Is there anywhere reliable that I could obtain the floppy? I bought the computer itself for $15 from the Salvation Army where I worked at the time - and it lasted a good two months, at least, before I gave up on it. But, being a Salvation Army, uh, salvation, it had no disk, of course. Kathryn L. Shelly - Kate MHC Class of '03 Somebody said that it happens all over the world -- And I do believe that it's true.
