After procrasting, I finally dove into recapping the Mac Classic that was a $30 FB Marketplace rescue. Watch me attempt to remove old capacitors from a 1990 Classic board.

A graphite iMac G3 displaying the About This Mac window on Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger. The system specs list a 500MHz PowerPC G3 processor and 512MB of SDRAM. The desktop wallpaper is a stylized map from Fallout 3, shown in shades of blue and black that glow vividly against the CRT screen. The iMac sits on a desk beside a Dell keyboard and another beige CRT monitor, with CDs stacked on the left and a dimly lit room with pink insulation and grey curtains in the background.
The same iMac G3 running Mac OS X Tiger with a Finder window open, showing user folders such as Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Movies, Music, and Pictures. The CRT emits a bright glow. A white Apple keyboard is positioned in front of the iMac, and to the left, a stack of jewel-cased CDs and a shelving unit with electronics and cables are visible.
I like to power on my #CRT monitors every now and then. This graphite #imac #imacg3 still looks good, even if the camera made it look soft! #retromac #oldmac #powerpc #powerpcmac #vintagemac #2000snostalgia #nostalgia #oldcomputer #retrocomputer

A pair of Macintosh Classics that have been re-finished in a thick semi-gloss pumpkin orange enamel, showing jackolantern faces on the built-in screens. (Whomever made these was obviously not aware that drop-in replacement amber-phosphor CRT bottles are available, which would have made them look even more awesome.)
I'm not a fan of the commercial corruption of All Hallow's Eve, so these "Mac-o-lanterns" is as close to spooky as I'll ever get.

NEW VIDEO ON PEERTUBE! Remember that post about the #powermacg4 systems I made a little while back? Well, I actually did something with them! #videomaking #retroapple #retromac #vintagemac #powerpcmac #powerpc makertube.net/w/cqoedY31bw...

Two Apple laptops are side by side on a beige desk: on the left is a more modern M1 MacBook Air in silver, and on the right is a white iBook G4 running Mac OS X Tiger. The MacBook Air displays the macOS Sequoia desktop, with the “About This Mac” window open, showing it as a MacBook Air with an Apple M1 chip and 8GB of RAM. The iBook G4 screen also shows its system information, revealing it’s running Mac OS X 10.4.11 with a 1.2GHz PowerPC G4 processor and 1.25GB of RAM. The iBook has a vivid rose-themed wallpaper and is plugged into power, with its charging indicator glowing orange. Behind the laptops is a large 24-inch Sun Microsystems LCD monitor, currently powered off, and a white Apple keyboard tucked partially underneath it. A Microsoft-branded mouse is visible on the right edge of the desk, and a partially obscured camera sits to the left of the MacBook Air.
I know it’s not as dramatic as it could be, but I still think the contrast of these two laptops, 14 years apart, looks like. #vintagemac #oldpc #retromac #vintageapple #ibook #ibookg4 #powerpc #powerpcmac #powerpcg4 #macbook #macbookair

So a thing happened today!
I removed leaky caps from a #MacClassic system board! This was my first attempt at removing caps from a board. Not too bad.
Dealing with C2 and C8 are going to be “fu”n. 🤣😇

Three vintage Apple Power Mac G4 towers are lined up side by side on a light wood-style vinyl floor. They are positioned near a desk with exposed computer cables underneath, and unfinished pink fiberglass insulation on the wall behind them. From left to right, the first machine is a Power Mac G4 Graphite model, featuring a translucent smoky gray front panel with vertical ribbing, a tray-loading optical drive, a circular speaker grille, and a white Apple logo near the top. A white asset sticker from an electronics recycler is affixed to the front. Next is the Power Mac G4 Quicksilver, which has a sleeker, metallic silver faceplate with rounded edges. The front panel includes two optical drive bays and a circular speaker port. It also has a white asset label on the front from the same recycler. The third tower is the Power Mac G4 MDD (Mirrored Drive Doors), distinguished by its mirrored drive bay cover, silver circular power button, and four small vertical ventilation slots near the bottom of the front panel. It does not have a recycler label on the front, as it has been in my collection since 2012. All three systems share the iconic translucent polycarbonate handles and curvy aesthetic characteristic of early 2000s Apple hardware.
Look what followed me home today! The two #powermacg4 systems on the left, I found for cheap, and compliment the MDD (on the right) I’ve had since 2012! #powermac #retrocomputer #oldcomputer #vintageapple #retromac #vintagemac #macos9 #2000snostalgia #powerpc #powerpcg4 #powermacintosh #powerpcmac

A dark, whispery landscape at night. The moon is in the sky, and a shooting star streaks across. Fireflies dot the canvas. On the bottom is an Apple Macintosh with a happy little face, and its monitor illuminating a cone through the night. The entire illustration gives a feeling of loneliness, but one where the lonely soul is determined none-the-less.
Some art from me, circa 2023. I have always been fascinated by the Apple Macintosh — the seamless confluence of fit, form, and function all betray the rather early era from which it was made.
Done in Procreate.

Just modded an old WD My Book into a FireWire SSD for retro Macs. Perfect for my PowerPC gear.

Screenshot showing the Software Update menu with updates available for Java and QuickTime. The About This Mac panel is also open, showing Mac OS X version 10.4.11 is running on a 350 MHz PowerPC G3 with 1GB RAM.
Software Update is still working on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, released in 2005. Pretty cool that no one has turned off those servers yet! #mac #retromac #vintagecomputing

Macintosh Performa 475 from 1993 with an Apple 14” RGB Display. To the left of the Mac, there are stacked peripheral devices: a SyQuest 270, a Fujitsu 230MB MOD drive, and a NEC CD-ROM drive.
30 years ago, and it feels like yesterday. The 040er 68k Macs ran so smoothly…

A graphite iMac G3 sitting on a desk, showing a Mac OS X 10.4.11 desktop. The desktop wallpaper is a world map from the game Fallout 3. There is a newer Apple keyboard sitting in front.
The same graphite iMac G3 on the desk, this time showing a gameplay scenario from Fallout, at the entrance of a military base guarded by Nightkin (mutant) enemies.
Even though it’s been sitting close by for a long time, I kind of forgot about this old beast! This #imacg3 #imac has a 600MHz #g3 with 512MB of RAM, and has the graphite colour! Still works lovely! #vintagemac #retromac #retrocomputer #vintageapple #2000snostalgia #fallout #powerpc #powerpcmac

I got my #vintage #Apple ImageWriter II printer working!
Here’s a clip of it printing out a holiday card using Print Shop on my Mac SE/30!
The ribbon is old, and needs to be replaced but it still has some ink left.

Take a look at this #imacg4 running #minecraft! It wasn’t fast, but it works! For #powerpc Macs, there’s actually a better client called Minecraft Fast SP, which runs very well on this iMac. #2000snostalgia #oldmac #imac #retroapple #retromac
