We
separated the Apple Updates on Thumb Drives to allow you
to order only the updates you need. While the updates are
free from Apple some are quite large and take a long time

likely still be some hardware specific updates you will
need to download from Apple to complete your
installation.

ABOUT
MONITORS:
We now stock a select few Flat Panel LCD's. These are
tested on Macs and we will not sell any of the dark slow
and fuzzy junk you sometimes find at bargain basement
prices. These are new units (unless noted) and are bright
and sharp. We don't carry much in CRT monitors. They are
heavy to ship and the larger ones are subject to damage
in shipping. We recommend you use our low cost Mac to
PC monitor adapter (see our monitor section) ).
Easily adapt most any PC monitor to your older beige
Macintosh including flat panels LCD's. Compare at $24.99
to $44.99 our Special Price $14.99 includes domestic
shipping. G3
Blue & White, G4 and above take PC HD15 connections
straight up! No adapter needed for those models. We also
carry video card upgrades for many models that really
improve your systems performance. Our adapters even allow
small LCD use with older Mac systems.
ABOUT
PRINTERS:
Check often we get a few StyleWriter's in that work with
your older Mac. Use USB Printers when you can but check
to make sure they support your OS version and buy the
cables from us. No USB? OS8.6-9.2 and a card will
put you PCI bus PowerMac owners in business. USB Printers
that work in 9 are harder to find. We try to stock a few
USB refurbed units that work in 9. See the printer
section of the store. See my tech tips printer section
for more tips: http://resale.headgap.com/bobsmactips.html#print
ABOUT
MODEMS:
We
have internal modems for many different models. We also
have a few used serial modems. See the modem section of
our online store. Zoom
makes a 56K USB Modem
Model 3095, that will work with your system. It works
with older classic OSes from 9.2 (and probably 8.6 if you
manually install the CCL) up to 10.6 although you will
have to likely manually install some components.
MAC
REPAIR & UPGRADES:
Want
to repair or update your old (out of warranty) Mac and
don't know how? Send us your old system and let us
install any of the items we sell. Add processor upgrades,
optimize your existing processor, more ram, larger
drives, or perhaps an internal burner. We also
professionally install all Mac OS versions including OSX
and update it to the latest versions from Apple. We also
test, and thoroughly clean inside and out. Give us a call
or email
us
with your particulars.
- We
repair out of warranty laptops at fair prices, laptop
expert technicians on staff.
- We
also provide low level hard drive recovery at
reasonable rates. Call for details.
- Need
your old data moved to a new drive or system? Let us
do that for you.
- Need
your old floppies, Zips, Syquests, etc. moved to CD or
DVD - give us a call.
ABOUT
HEADGAP REFURBISHED COMPUTERS:
What makes us different is we not only clean and
thoroughly test each system, we many times replace the
hard drives, optical drives, memory with upgraded
replacements. Operator Headgap Systems purchases good
used Mac systems in quantity. Our professional staff of
refurbishers clean, perform over 50 diagnostic tests
including DOD level drive formatting. All our systems
come smartly configured and ready to use. Our refurbished
used Mac Computers come with the required cables and
cords (except keyboards unless noted, use your old one or
available extra). We even include a free mouse pad. We
offer a quality refurbished product at the lowest
possible price and stand behind our systems with a
90
day warranty.
Why
use reconditioned equipment? Read more.
NICELY
CONFIGURED?:
When you select any of our systems you get not only the
basic system software preinstalled. We update the OS
software to the latest version. We also install many open
source, freeware and shareware programs and configure
them for use on your system. For example LibreOffice is
an Open Source Clone of Office for the Mac. It allows you
to open and save Word, PowerPoint, Excel file in their
formats making it easy to exchange your work with other
Office users. We also install Flip4Mac and Perian which
extends Quicktime allowing you to playback many types of
multimedia files like .divx and .wmv in a larger variety
of formats. Firefox and TenFour Fox gives you an
additional browser choice over Apple's Safari and much,
much more. On older PPC equipped systems including G4 and
G5 models we install an update Flash Plugin allowing
better YouTube playback. Plus we always include the OSX
Kitchen Sink that is chock full of other programs you may
find useful and wish to add for use with your new
system.
TRADE-INS
OR SELL YOUR OLD MAC Remember
we pay wholesale prices. Many times when you are ready to
upgrade your old used Mac system may not be worth much,
especially to a dealer who is used to buying in quantity
at wholesale prices and has the units shipped in bulk
truck freight. Boxing and shipping your old system costs
a few dollars. Here lately we have been having more
trouble locating older systems people are still buying.
We will begin offering trade-ins or to buy outright
certain older systems. The following are on the list:
used PowerMac G4, QuickSilver G4, G3 Desktops, PowerMac
7300, Quadra or Centris 650, 800, 840, and Mac IICI's and
SI's. The units need to be cosmetically in good condition
and working (at least chiming). Trade in value will vary
from the top wholesale price for extra clean, that exceed
stock configurations and down for less that prime units.
We are also purchasing good used Apple Desktop Bus Mouse
II ADB Mice, working StyleWriters, and SCSI & USB Zip
Drives. WE BUY USED SONNET G4 AGP PROCESSORS.
We
are also purchasing good used Apple Desktop Bus Mouse II
ADB Mice.

RECYCLING
If
you have Mac items and hate to throw them away but figure
they have little or no value in todays market, rather
than dumping them to a landfill, write us with a list.
Email: cheryn
or the online
form.
Any of the items we can use we will pay your shipping.
You can rest assured that we will put your old Mac items
back into circulation either using them to repair old
equipment or including the items with systems. All hard
drives are thoroughly DOD level formatted so have no fear
about any data left on a hard drive. We properly recycle
any items we end up having to discard. We do not accept
CRT type monitors or LaserWriters (too heavy and little
value).
