tomorrow my airbrush should be here. well there is a weekend project for me..

#3Dprinting an enclosure for my mac mini.

i think i'll play around with the model and get rid of the usb ports since i don't use the front USB's at all.

some gaming on my PowerMac G5 dual 2ghz. when paired with GeForce 6800 ultra its not too shabby.

plugged my PowerBook G4 titanium (original 400mhz). just to find it not boot.

quick fix, disconnect the PRAM battery from the board. yes it forgets the time/date but better than not being able to turn it on.

I deliberated this for some time. As I was running out of space, I opted to avoid the PowerMac G5.

When I found one for $20, I couldn’t resist. It is a fascinating and highly inefficient machine. More comments will follow soon.

I found a computer in decent shape that had Pentium D 830 3.0Ghz processor (i have a soft spot for the Pentium D).

but this also gave me the chance to use my Pentium 4 540 3.2 Ghz cpu.

i know i can always swap them but, would you keep the D or 4 in the machine?

who remember this ?
i had a 286 12mgz too but my HDD was 40mb not 500 hahah and i only had 1Mb memory.

is this a problem with intel/x86 or is it a problem with windows ?
a capture from start up. actually 4-5 minutes into it.

why is a decent intel cpu struggling so much just to run windows ?
