Run Powerbook 540c from Floppy — #2

It may not be quite the only alternative. 1. You could presumably run it from an external SCSI hard drive. 2. You might, with a little ingenuity, manage to configure and run it t…

Scored a Powermac G3 All In One — #30

How do I attach pictures? I really didn't think the G4 was going to make a big difference but it does. I mean you cannot play any OSX games but I do have OS 9.2.2 for my old game…
