Has 52mb RAM, and A/UX on the HD. #2 Thu, 13 Nov 2008 - 16:22 68kMLA That's way cool! #3 Thu, 13 Nov 2008 - 16:30 68kMLA The A/UX is bone stock. Version 3.

Floppy interface heavily software dependent. #5 Thu, 13 Nov 2008 - 19:19 68kMLA Q900 and 950 also don't lag. It has nothing to do with the CPU, its because the floppy drive is run off the IOPs. #6 Fri, 14 Nov 2008 - 18:27 68kMLA Cool thing! I had a IIVX too but was dissapointed of the crippled mainboard. .Installed Debian linux 3.0? in text mode.I saw a Q800 in a Q700 case that looked nice, too at applefritter. #7 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 - 00:10 68kMLA I suppose I'll quote someone from this forum: "Pics or it didn't happen". #8 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 - 04:05 68kMLA Cool thing!I had a IIVX too but was dissapointed of the crippled mainboard. .Installed Debian linux 3.0? in text mode.I saw a Q800 in a Q700 case that looked nice, too at applefritter.
