I'd like to get a faster G3 before getting a G4. The only reason to run G4 would be OSX but I have another machine with that. I'd just like to trick it out enough to get the Wings AV card, maybe a TV Tuner card, make it my multimedia blast from the past (use older software, etc). Ha, I also have a few older machines lying around that I'm gonna trick out someday... Anyways here are more questions:
So where can I get the RevB/C SIMMs? eBay?
I can find some personality cards, just having hangups that it might do something evil.
Finally, there are issues with which ZIF's can work on mine. I read somewhere that you can't necessarily get a working pull from some B&W's or whatnot and plug and play..because of New World v. Old World ROMs or something. Can't find the article. Bottom line is, should I just buy a straight up "upgrade ZIF" from say Sonnet or can I just go on eBay and get a "working pull" and be fine with it?
Also, can you buy the cache separately or is that part and parcel with the chip/upgrade?
Any help would be awesome!
