Revision as of 18:09, 31 December 2006

This page will contain information about the FreeGeek process for Apple Macintosh computers, including receiving, recycling, and build as perceived and interpreted by me, Tony Rick. The process is currently (28 December 2006) being defined, so things here will be changing often. People active in the process definition are Dave <last-name?>, Loren <last-name?>, and Tony Rick.

At some point someone may decide that information here is worthy of merging into the overall Eval/Build process. Or maybe not.

There are references to the handling of Apple/Macintosh scattered all over this wiki. There should be a list of those on this page. Eventually, if and when this process is formalized, those references will need to be reworded to reflect the new policy.

To Do:

  • Flesh out Mac Rebuild section
  • Rework MacPile/Triage relationship (currently MacPile is Triage Entry and MacRenewal Pickup)
  • Distinguish between iMac 'bubble' boxes and Towers during Triage
  • Can/Should rejected Towers be recycled by FG?


Here is first cut at an overview

Overview

This is a graph with borders and nodes. Maybe there is an Imagemap used so the nodes may be linking to some Pages.


FG Keep Criteria

  • FG Mac lowend cutoff
  • Mac Triage storage available


MacRenewal Reject Criteria

  • (Lorraine's rejection list goes here)


Special Recycle

  • Requires special training to avoid CRT flyback transformer hazard
  • Carcass sent to Monitor Recycle


Mac Triage

This is a graph with borders and nodes. Maybe there is an Imagemap used so the nodes may be linking to some Pages.

Notes

  • Mac Triage should maintain a pool of good memory sticks (64MB will do), small hard drives, good batteries
  • Should we mine PPC cpu's? Wouldn't this require some kind of Advanced Testing support?
  • Should we mine memory and hard drive as a matter of course on good boxes?
  • Should any hard drive or memory be tested in place?
