summer ( exams too ) is back, and I haven't finished the damn case :D I guess I'll have time after my finals which are in 2-3 weeks till then ;)

as I told you, it's useless now since I've figured out the pinouts. But thanks for the help anyway :D

I did check that site ( along every philips related site I could find ) with no luck ( also, I don't think I'd find datasheets for LCDs in the semi conductors branch ;) and me saying "Philips tech support didn't give a shit" is based on the 3 months of waiting for an answer to my emails (...

Since Phillips tech support didn't give a shit about my request for help, I tried using the LTE072T-50 datasheets to guess pinouts, and successfully wired the LCD to my 9800 Pro TV-Out. Both LCDs are pin compatible, thus making it easier ( only needed to guess a few wires from the connector...

Just my 2 cents about that case, I wouldn't waste my time on it, since it's rather ... flimsy, as told before ... hard to work on without warping pannels & stull like that ... but, if you really want to do it ^^;

In a somewhat kamikaze manner, I tried to power one of the LCDs up ... I was lucky ( and cable color codes for ground and +12V seem to follow logic ) and the display lit itself up ... 8 wires to go I now have to figure out the following cables : blue - green - grey - white - purple -...

I just scavenged a couple of 7" 16/9 LCD displays from a mobile DVD systems installed on a Ford Galaxy, and I've looked everywhere on the net for datasheets so I could hook them up on a computer ( either through TV out or VGA with/without VGA -> composite adapter ) with no luck... Has any of...

It's a mountain mods case, if you wanna know. I once purchased an Aluminum Mobo tray, and am very happy with it. They are truly professionnal, I can only recommend them :) edit : link

that's quite an interresting setup, I look forward to hearing more from this :)

actually, I think it's a V1000B

Nice mod - even though it's a shame it's not a Mac anymore, there's a certain charm about G4 cubes I can't explain ^^; Also, I've been looking @ G4 cubes too, and prices are outrageous ( like, 600$ for an old 400MHz, 1000-1500$ for an upgraded one :/ )

my point exactly, and the DDR400 is cheaper too ;)

get DDR400, it's not much different in price compared to DDR333 or DDR266, and will work fine. If your mobo only supports FSB533 cpus, get one of these ( P4B ) and not a P4C, otherwise the CPU will run at a much lower speed than spec'd, thus ruining the point of having it.

Painting is put on hold till weather improves ( crappy rain + frequent near 0°C temps make it a bad time to do some serious painting ... not to mention 70% min humidity ) meanwhile, I think I'll get working on my Tachikoma mod, and maybe see if my Alphaserver 4100 works or not, in which case...

that is one cheap prize for such a nice job ... :D
