Well I figure I can still run a 7950 if I can find the drivers. That would suffice for me.

It appears that low end SCSI cards are in very short supply, as everyone is scrambling to get cards for their new G3s. Has anyone done thorough testing on multiple cards to see w…

I bought an Adaptec 2910 for Wintel and I put the driver of the 2906 in system folder. And now I have a low end card (SCSI 2) in my blue G3 for a reasonnable cost. I think the pric…

I just picked up a new beige G3MT and find the CD-ROM very noisy when accessing. At first I thought something was wrong, then it quieted; but gets noisy again when accessing. Is t…

Wade, I have the same machine and the same problem. The problem is not as difficult as it may appear. I understand this problem affects only a percentage of mt 300s but you and i j…

Will the current G3's be upgradable to the G4 (when it comes out this summer)?, and will the rest of the architecture remain equal ie: system/memory bus speeds. I'd like to buy the…

It won't be possible! The G3 is related to the 603e, and the G4 will be "directly" related to the 604e. Similar to how the 68040 was with the 68LC040 that I have in my P640 with …

Smoke signals from different rumor sites within the past 2 or 3 months suggest that a pin compatible G4 may well be in the cards. However, Maxbus and AGP4x may be available on fir…

The current G3s will, in fact, be upgradeable to G4 processors. The first version of G4 will come in the same 360-pin BCA package, so yes it will be upgradeable. Remember that the …

mkbhatia is right. The presentation by Motorola explicitly states that the first version(s) of their G4 will be pin-compatible with G3s. The only minor quibble about mk's post was …

i stand corrected =) -m

If you don't own a Apple g3 now (and you have the cash), you should buy one. Don't sit around and wait for the g4. Once the g4 comes out your will be thinking about holding off fo…

Anyone using the ProMax Digital Video Editor on G3? Please respond with your review/critique. Thanks.

I have a G3 300 w/UW SCSI, and recently added a 6GB maxtor drive as slave to the CD-ROM and it works great. What I would like to know is, it is possible to add another IDE drive? R…

The ide bus can only have 1 master and 1 slave on the chain. If you want more IDE drives, you need a second IDE connector from a 3rd party card. JohnW

Hello, I wonder is there any place I can buy a 7"NuBus A/V card for my PowerMac 6100/60? Thank you

Can anyone tell me how to use my iMac as the monitor on my G3 tower. I have heard it to be done, and need to know how.

Now I have never done this and never heard of it being done but I know that if you take the bottom casing off of the iMac that the monitor cable is there. I guess you can connect …

All this talk about overclocking has me wondering what I can get out of my beige G3/266 Minitower. Anybody tried that?

I too wouldn't wind knowing how to get my Beige G3/300 MT upto 333Mhz if possible. I've seen how to get a 233 faster but never the 300.

Well, subject pretty much says it all. Does anyone have experience with putting a Mac in a new case? I have a 7300 that I'd like to put into a big tower so that I can add more driv…
