That's the thing, the process with the biggest RAM usage is like 40-60mb (Kernel), with a bunch of smaller ones below it. It's like lots of tiny processes are starting but I can't…

My Sawtooth (500mhz, 1.75gb, 10.5.4) never has free RAM.
Let me explain.
It is running Leopard, apache, mysql, and TorrentFlux (Python).

I ve bought a Pismo (500 mhz) on eBay, and it was sold broken.
At home I unplugged the pram battery, and then it booted fine. The Pismo is in great condition.
But the screen is s…
This Q is quite FA around here. Perhaps we need a FAQ page.
My short answer is go to xlr8yourmac.com under articles->systems->g4 from their front page navigation ba…
The Quicksilver uses a 133mhz bus, the Sawtooth only uses a 100mhz one. The Quicksilver 800 CPU would have a multiplier of 6, so it would only run at 600mhz on a Sawtooth, if it wo…

Dug out a crossover cable, successful connection. Strange because both machines should not need it:

the main problem you have with a sawtooth and dual CPUs is that most of the boards don't support Dual CPUs. If you have a revision newer than Rev 3, you can do it. I am hoping th…
I'm possibly interested in upgrading the CPU in my Sawtooth (500mhz now).
I don't want to buy one of the 3rd party upgrade cards -- I'd prefer to buy a stock CPU that was pulled w…

since it is a sawtooth could i put in some other g4 cpu in it like a quicksilver's, or even a duel cpu? Also what are good after market cpu upgrades that are compatible?
Click t…
Ok it does have agp, I just didnt know if they put agp in and then did some other major changes later on (well obviously the quicksilver), so since it is a sawtooth could i put in …
