Multiple HD images on 540c w/133 PPC Upgrade

I have an odd problem with my 540C. The desktop has started to show seven hard drive images. All the images are duplicates of the real hard drive, all are searchable, any file changes I make to the hard drive shows up in all versions, all the programs I use seem to be working fine. Each of thes

While I am not a frequent poster here either, I recommended that Ken post his flash card / PB 1400 RAM query here instead of at the Hypercard list because I remember this being discussed not so long ago. Could any of those posters please find it in their hearts to help him out? I'm not recalling

Re: what to buy

If you want to stay under $500 then the following would work. 1. PB 1400 - G3 upgradeable as well. A bit lightweight and flimsy in some physical areas but a great machine and quite capable. 2. PB 3400 - No G3 but it is a powerhouse, many expansion options availabe, durable and great for graphic

Re: what to buy

With a price limit like that, a new iBook would fit the bill. Or, if you wanted to spend less, a used iBook or PB G3 would also do well. Scott Holder At 05:02 PM 3/19/2002 -0600, you wrote: >Hello everyone! > >I am new to this mailing list. I've been looking into Macs for a few months >now and

How to change classic application printer in OS X?

I'm now using a new iBook at work. While its a bit of a hassle to find/capture/choose printers at each new location (four different buildings on a regular basis), this does not seem to affect the printer that 'classic' applications want to use. They are still looking for the first printer I set u

Hello, I'm new to this list. I have a PB 1400c, 133mhz, 48 mb, 1.2 g, OS 8.6. I would like to do some upgrades to this machine. Like (I assume) most 1400 owners, memory is a problem. I know I can upgrade to a max of 64 mb internal physical memory. Replacing with the right stuff, though, is hard

Hi Ben Thanks for your reply. I have been quoted £300 to get it repaired but most repair outfits I contacted said it wasn't worth doing and tried to flog me a new iMac at £500. I was told I'd need a new screen unit that would take a week to come from the US! To tell you the truth I am all set to
