I have an odd plastics question.
We have a couple B&WG3s, one of which has passed away and I have
been selling off the remains on the swap list.
Fairly new to us is a G4/450DP. The previous owner of the G4
apparently could not figure out how to open the side door, and
managed to break off the plastic latches that secure the door. The
ring-thing that opens the door still works, but does not hold the
door as securely as the two outer/top latches. Those latches are
part of a large piece of plastic that slides back and forth beneath
the motherboard.
My question is, does anyone know if that plastic piece is the same
in the G3 and G4? Tonight, I will be taking the motherboard out of
the G3 to send to Dana so he can hopefully salvage the motherboard
IDE connection for his sickly G3. I am reluctant to strip down the
G4 to try swapping the plastic part based on "they look like they
are the same." I was hoping someone on this list had some first
hand knowledge.
Yes the case door for the B&W and the Sawtooth/GigE/DA G4 macs are
the same. The only difference in those case plastics is the color.
I'm reasonably certain the door is the same on ALL of them, in fact,
only the front and back panels changed.
