In My hackintosh I have Leopard,Win XP, and Debian in the same HD. But in my iMacG4 and my 2 G4 MDD only 9.2.2. I love Mac Os Classic (7.x 8.x 9.x) -it is the best os I know- and…

Both are G4 revision 3.3 (7455B) but diferent production number. Both G4 have 32kInstr/32kData L1 cache at CPU speed. Both G4 have 256k L2 cache at CPU speed. Both G4 have L3 ca…

Well, it won't run faster (apart from now having cache working of course) unless you change the jumper settings.

Wait: if this is all about testing OS X browsers, why do you need OS X Server at all? Click to expand... The issue is he wants to stay "legal" within the letter of the "law", …

We are trying to find a way to test various mac browsers through the mac os's without having the extra equipment available. I know how to get this done, but I didn't know osx serv…

Are the CPUs exactly the same? ie, the same model/series of G4, the same amount of cache at L1, L2 and L3, the same cache:cpu speed ratio?

Yeah, I mounted it on my G5 and moved it back over to the 9600. It's working now. Not much faster than before but at least I'm running a G3 now.

And I found this: By Jonathan A. Oski The Mac is tackling many tasks that were not thought possible just a couple of years ago, but there are many areas where timesaving imp…

Daystar RAM PowerCard. Click to expand... Thanks for the actual product name. A Google search turned up this page: http://www.linkology.com/daystar/ however, all the links …

I'm trying to get one of my beige G3 towers running and have a Western Digital 205AA drive with the Apple logo on it. I have it installed and am able to load MacOS 9.2 from CD but …

Nice find! I would love that Mac OS X Server 1.0 (Rhapsody) disk. I can't seem to find those anywhere.

Great info! It really highlights which apps are dual or even multi-thread aware as well as which apps/codecs are memory and/or io bound instead of cpu bound. This is the kind of …

You know that might work.... I still have a few Proliant 5000 units. At least they are Compaq beige. They would fit right in at 7U in height, and once stripped are an incredible…

Somebody from the old IRC channel has the 840AV version of a RAM card that used 8 x 72 pin SIMMs (32MB max each for 256MB total). I think Newer technology sold it. It was pretty fa…

I have seen only one of these, on eBay a few years back. It sold for something outrageous even then, before the prices of nubus-era equipment began to go up. As I recall, the writ…

I tried installing a 400mhz processor I pulled from a B&W G3 and it didn't work at all. (I assume the bus speeds are wildly different) Click to expand... B&W bu…

Daystar RAM PowerCard. I'm pretty sure it was not addressable as system memory, just as RAM disk, print spool, and disk cache. FWIW I have been searching for this and any similar …

That's some great information. Thank you for sharing the results of your real world tests. That's the best kind of information to see and it is rare.

Dual 1.42 versus 1.42 Single (1.25 overclocked to 1.42) in the same machine (G4 MDD). I have done several speed test -primary video compression- swapping two processors cards in m…

This tech note:http://developer.apple.com/legacy/mac/library/technotes/hw/hw_520.html states that: "There is no way that the Macintosh operating system can recognize NuBus RAM an…

The only way I can even think of would be to run a PC hardware emulator like QEMU or Virtual PC, then run "Hackintosh" OS X inside that. It would be dog-slow, though. (Hrm... Yo…

We are only allowed to place rack units in the data center I've tried micro-atx boxen clipped to the side of the racks behind panels and got whacked for that pretty hard. Still…

Thanks everyone for your help, I finally decided to allow the OS 9 disc to format the hard drive and installed it Firmware now updated, and Tiger installation restored perfectly w…

At last i managed to hear sound from roland mt-32 . I bought the real 'Hosa CMP-159 Mini to 1/4" Phone Stereo Breakout 10ft' (http://www.proaudiosuppliers.com/hosa-cmp-159.html) …

Gorgonops much thanks there. I think I'm going with the xserve and licenses after all. Get this - the simple reason is: ....... We are only allowed to place rack units in the d…
