I just found the low end mac site and this group after I dug out the 5300cs
that I had gotten at a garage sale for cheap and wanted to know if there was
anything I could do to upgrade it. From what I've been able to gather, there
really isn't much I can do to it other than a larger HD and more
I am trying to get the cd rom drive and zip drive that came
with this
laptop up and running and am having no luck so far. Here is
what I've
tried
ZIP by itself as device 5 and terminated: Works!
CD Rom by itself as any device number: Doesn't work :(
ZIP and CD daisy chained with
It's Running Mac OS 8.0
At least up that to OS 8.1
Where do I go to find updates. I assume apple no longer does them
It depends on what you want to do with it and how much you are
willing to spend. I got the upgrade but that was from 32 to 64.
Really just some basic word

OK, I've read over the comments and have a few more questions.
First as much as I can figure out to tell you about it at the moment:
It is a 5300cs (what is the cs for btw? I thought color screen at first, but
then noticed that there was also a c)
It's Running Mac OS 8.0
It has a 750 meg HD
Thanks to everyone who replied, I've got some options that I was not aware
of
