Really nice! I once installed the x86 version on my old PC, but that didn't go too well...

We've come a long way, indeed

We've come a long way, indeed .

And yet, it's eerily familiar...

I love that log in screen. The Apple logo looks really great.

Yeah that setup looks sweet!

What are the specs on your 8500?

It had 233 MHz - 604E upgrade CPU, but Rhapsody doesn't work with upgrades so I placed original 120 MHz CPU to get it work.

120 MHz / 144 RAM / 2GB SCSI IBM HDD (without apple brand on it), built in graphic card

Wow...these pictures take me back to the 90s when I wish I could have run something like that on our Mac at the time. Thank you for showing this to us.

Wow, I LOVE that login screen. Wonder if it is possible to skin the Windows XP login to that...
