Hi, With the advent of Snow Leopard, G4 towers sure are getting cheap these days ... picked up this beauty for AUD $99! It came in pristine condition (bar many stickers on the si…

I finally got it working! The cable that I had purchased was not a cross over cable and the Mac requires one to hook up to the Roland so a bit of splitting and soldering was in ord…

I have a Quadra 700 here that constantly gets bus errors at startup, right before it would load extensions. Often though, this does not happen. The ratio is about 50/50 if I had to…
