    nec mobilepro 750c

    well, i got a new toy...

    i found it in a junk bin for 5 bux. no cords or battery.

    i bought it becase it looked fun...

    but, all i can find online is the AC cord. no battery, serial/vga dongle cords. i would like to use it... it looks fun.

    wikipedia says its the rarest one onthe market

    any advice? anybody got one?

    ps- ebay has a used one on auction w/battery... 6days lefty, no bids. maybe i caould start there...

    pps- any suggestions on a linux for it?

          It runs winCE 2.0. I don't think you can load linux onto it. Depends on how much access it gives you to the rom. This thing is going to be sloooooow. I don't think its worth the $5.

            it has a cf slot, and a pc card slot. i was thinking a school note-taking machine, but maybe not.

            i think its cool.

            i wish i could afford a Sony Vaio P series. those rock.

                $20 will probably get you a decent PDA on ebay. Old palm or CE units that aren't CE 2.0 PDAs kind of fell by the wayside with iphone and blackberries. My phone plays XVID movies full speed and its not even worth $100. Monochrome palm pilots are probably worth $25-30 at best.

                      yeah, the 780 at least has 3rd party batteries available... none for the 750c.

                        These are still going for money, you might get your $5 back if you sell it on ebay.

                            just get 2 new 18650's and CAREFULLY!! rebuild yours.
                            surprisingly the original battery is good in mine.

                              Dial Cord Hell! Radio Shack SW-100 (Venturer 2959, Rhapsody RY-610)
                              by vestaviascott
                              I'm looking for the dial cord winding settings for this radio!

                              I spend most of a whole day yesterday trying to figure this out. I just need to know how many turns for the tuning knob stylus to get me started, then how many on the lower and upper bobbins on the first cord pulley (there are two on either side of the tuning band area).

                              The dial cord system has a central gear where the dial cord spring and stay is, then the tuning knob stylus and two small rollers each with a small and a larger bobbin holder. I finally figured out how to wind the cord on those bobbins...

                              can someone say how to put this plug together, there are two cords, one goes to the pedal and the other from wall plug to sewing machine. Don't know if the pedal should get its power from the motor, it's a bit confusing because the two cords coming from the motor are brown colored, don't know which is live or ground the blue and brown cord comes from the lamp. if anyone knows grateful...

                              Lenovo Thinkcentre Turns On When Power Cord Plugged in
                              by Zentech
                              I got a Lenovo Thinkcentre MT-3218 that when I plug the power cord, the computer turns on. The power button seems to work just fine. When I press it the computer turns off, and when I press it again, it comes back on. But when I unplug the power, and plug it back again, it turns the computer on... does anyone have an idea what might be causing this strange behavior. Could this be the power supply or a bad contact on the power button?
                              thanks
                              PS: everything else on the computer works fine

                              Asus VG248QE won't power on / purple light
                              by gamartinelli
                              Hello,

                              I have an Asus VG248QE that all suddenly stopped working. Everything was fine, I had my PC connected to the HDMI port and never had any issues. Then I decided to plug a laptop in the DisplayPort (USB-C to DP cable). It worked fine for a few hours, I left, at some point the monitor went to sleep mode and when I came back and moved the mouse monitor didn't wake up. The power button lights up in blue when the signal is good and amber when in sleep mode / no signal turned purple (first time I saw that). Did some research but couldn't find a way to bring my monitor back to life....

                              Obtaining Replacement AC Adapter & Cord for Sony DVD Player
                              by Giacomo Siffredi
                              Hello!

                              I am trying to obtain a replacement AC power cord and accompanying adapter for a Sony DVP-S560D DVD Player. There are several identifying numbers on the existing cord: The cylindrical portion bears the name & number: TDK ZCAT2132-1130; The "gasket" portion bears two numbers: VM3073 and 282; and the yellow adapter which plugs into the power supply board bears the name: AMP.

                              Where or which types of online/retail stores might I obtain a replacement AC cord for this unit? Thank you for your assistance!...
