Want to help? Here's what I'm in need of.

Images

The single thing that I'm looking for the most are high-quality images. Here's a list of what I'm looking for:

In general, if you have something you think may be useful, feel free to send it on through. I can't promise that I'll use every one, but if it sounds like something I could use based on what I've written above, I probably will.

When sending an image to me, be sure to remove the EXIF location data (I'll double-check myself just to be sure), along with letting me know if you'd like to be credited or not. If yes, let me know what name I should credit you as.

Capacitor Reference

If you have recapped something and would like to make it easier for people in the future to get the information they need on recapping your piece of hardware, send over your cap values! Check the Library first to see if I already have reference information for your item. If I don't, then send the values in! Here's a list of what I need for a complete page of capacitor reference:

If you only have partial information (like just the values, no image), that's fine, I can still add them. Having an image is ideal, but not 100% a requirement. Also, if you check and see that I have the values already but no image, as stated above, feel free to send one in!

Also, remember to double check that the values you provide are correct! I will likely have no way of confirming them myself.

Information

If you have any information on vintage hardware I've wrote about that you think would be useful to add, feel free to send it to me. Especially useful information would be examples of common faults and failures on vintage laptop hardware. If you can provide enough info for me to create a full page on one of your vintage laptops, send it on through! See pages on the Laptop Portal for examples of full pages.

Error Correction

Found an error somewhere on the site? A typo? Broken link? Incorrect information? Formatting error? Send it over to me and I'll get it fixed in the next site update, or earlier if it's something critical.

Feedback & Ideas

I also accept any site feedback or ideas that you may have. If there's something you'd like to see added to the site, a suggestion for a change to make, or anything like that. Let me know! I can't promise that I'll do anything you ask, but I always appreciate your ideas.


If you'd like to contact me about any of these things, either send an email to the address at the top of the page (macdatnet@gmail.com), or alternatively, you can send me a PM on any of the forums listed on my contact page.


Thank you in advance to anyone that helps me out with site development!
