Well, that's handy. Still not quite as nice as my whisper-silent iMac G4, but it's good to know you can still use it as an audio system in "sleep" mode.

I'm now thinking of some hacks, such as a floppy disk image to bring it up with a minimal system and a CD player. I thought about doing that from OpenFirmware, but OF on the TAM has some extremely unique and possibly insurmountable challenges.
