I am thinking about getting an ATI 128 Orion in a 7200/90 to speed up 2D (Word, DeltaGraph etc) and hopefully speed up "light" 3D like TombRaider, will it work or is the CPU to slo…

I also have a 7200/75 and I've had the same question myself about how effective a Rage 128 Orion would be in these old 601 macs. My understanding of the matter is that the main lim…

A few weeks ago, there was an announcement that the next Nintendo game machine would use PowerPC chips. There is no news on whether or not they will use Altivec or not. Obvioulsy, …

The new Nintendo, code name Dolphine, will use a PPC 400 processor from IBM. From what I have been hearing, the Dolphine is going to be a relativly cheap machine. I suspect that fo…

Altivec was really not made for games,I am not an expert on the subject, but for high end jobs like Photoshop. A good graphics chip would probably be better then Altivec. Besides, …

I just read the article about G3 uprades for various "upgrade-challenged" PowerMacs and Mac clones. There was no mention of the PM 7200. Anyone know why the 7200 is left out of the…

According to an interview with one of the upgrade company CEO's, the cache slot on the 7200 "doesn't have enough wires." In the Developer's Notes on the 7200, it refers to the cac…

does anyone know how to "undo" a firmware update?? i recently found out that Apple Computer's recent firmware update (for Blue and White G3's) eliminates the ablilty to upgrade to …

There's no way to undo the Firmware update. But, what you can do is mess-up your logic board and take it to an Apple Service Provider and let them order a new logic board. When t…

newer G3's are coming with the update made so chances are a replace,ent logic board will have that done already. I wouldn't stress about it. Apple will allow you to upgrade once th…

Does anyone know if the Firewire card that you can get for the bronze Powerbook will let you edit DV? using Final Cut Pro, or is the hard disk to slow or something. Just wonderin…

I have ordered a new FireWire card from Syskey from ClubMac.com for $250 and is available now. I have not tested it yet but it has many features that the FireWire2Go card does not…

Does anyone know how much space DV takes up on the hard-drive, or where I can find out. I know that it is recomended that you have a hard-drive that is able to write at 11MBs/sec …

hey blaine is that you? DV editing is great on the Bronze powerbooks, the hard drives that come in the powerbooks are plenty fast enough for DV although you better have the 10 GIG…

Does anyone know if the FireWire2GO card or any other card of this type will work with a Lombard 233Mhz PowerBook (White logo on top and purchased in early spring: I always get the…

To qualify: Lombard (a.k.a. 1999 PBG3) comes only in 333 and 400 MHz flavors. If you have a 233 (original Wall St.), you may have trouble capturing DV without loss.

Try the FireWire PC Card from Ratoc. www.ratoc.com I believe. They are a japanese company and I've been trying their card out for a while and it works great!

Help guys, I have an all in one G3 educational unit and I just got a ATI Rage Orion 128bit accelerator card. I dropped the card into the PCI slot and found that the card will on…

There may be some hardware hack where you're able to string your internal monitor to your Rage 128 card, but that definatly requires some know-how and the right parts. As far as so…

how the **** can you hook up an external video monitor to the imac? or is it a forever hopeless dream? anyone who replys will get a hot lunch from me, free!

Focus (focusinfo.com) makes the iTView which is a full iMac to television presentation system. iTView uses the iMac Video Adapter, which is also sold separately (call Focus: 800-…

Another thing you can do is rip the back panel off the iMac. There will be a DB15 plug pluged into the logic board. Unplug it and plug in you gigger display and then it's 21" if yo…
