Another brand of PRAM battery (apparently the orignal ones used by Apple most of the time) is the Tadiran TL-5112 Easy to spot because of the mostly purple color. = A common motto. "It's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease." Uncommon motto. "It's the quacking duck that gets shot."

Hello, here's my first post to the list. I often get the chimes on my Mac II... I have to repower to boot. This happens more and more often until at last after six months or so I have to open the case and press down on the SIMMS. I often wonder if it's a heat expansion/contraction thing aggrava

Re: IIci

I found some 16 MB SIMMs for sale for $22 each. I might go for them if I thought I wouldn't have to re-seat them! I guess the max I could go on a Mac II is 64 MB? Dave Quebbeman the pickle wrote: > > At 13:28 + on 02/01/03, Dave Quebbeman wrote: > > >happens more and more often until at
