Why the unusual frequency? — #25

Why the unusual frequency? — #24

I still don't understand why you simply can't source the clock off the Mac motherboard. If you don't want to solder to it use an alligator clip. I'm sure there's somewhere you can …

The RTClock / calendar / PRAM chip has its own 32KHz crystal. Everything else runs off the "16MHz" clock. If you don't care about serial baud rates, floppy read / write, or video s…

How much can I get for my G5? — #32

How much can I get for my G5? — #31

You can always dualboot between tiger and leopard. Click to expand... That makes no sense; then I might as well use a different system that boots OS 9 and a KVM or something ra…

eMac HD replacement - yikes! — #16

The fan should not be loud. It sounds like the fan has become un-lubricated. ~ A year later it started up again so I just lubricated it myself. Anyway... lubricate the eMac fan, …

How much can I get for my G5? — #30

I have 10.5 on my G5. I don't see why you should limit yourself to 10.4. Just get a nice souped up G4 to run your Classic apps, and then you can run them on the real OS 9 and not i…

Nice systems. The 9600 would have been better if it was a 604EV, but with a G3 upgrade it should rock anyway.
