I've already run OS X on my 6500 [:I] ]'>
I had to do some really convoluted stuff. Only 10.1.5 worked, and it refused to use my Crescendo/L2, so it was booting off the 603ev. It was really slow and sometimes didn't boot or had some other weird crashes.

But since the 7200 upgrade is designed to bypass the onboard 601, it may also work to bypass the onboard 603 in the 6500, which the L2 upgrade can't do. With the additional RAM slots, you may actually be able to get enough memory into the system to keep Tiger happy.
