Yeah, that's what I had gathered from Lowendmac and such. I suppose I'll be on the lookout for one then - I've been wanting a desktop Power Mac besides the fact.

I don't think the DOS card would work in a 6400 since it has to connect to either the PDS slot of the 8100 or a NUBUS slot, neither of which the 6400 has.

Had an amazing haul at Goodwill yesterday, best in ages!

I really want one of these. The best place to look is probably ebay Germany and hope the seller understands English and is willing to ship it to you. Most of the less well known cl…
I have long advised against formatting 1.4MB disks as 800K. I read they were unreliable in just about every book on Macs and wanted to see for myself.
Way back in 1995, I covered …

Congrats! New 800k floppies are hard to come by these days.

Yeah, and trying to format HD floppies as lower density floppies is almost always unreliable at b…
I had two conquests late this afternoon, both of which I feel are worth sharing!
First, for something I can use with my old 68Ks. I got two brand new shrinkwrapped boxes of floppi…

If you really want to get fancy with your 1 GHz G4, get 10.5 on that system. It's been done by others, but it's not trivial.

Sonnet Crescendo 1ghz G4 for beige PCI Powermacs. I've been seeing a few of these being sold by Mac dealers on ebay for $225-$250 so grabbed this one because it was only $100. You …
Sweet That bad boy deserves a worthy host - may I suggest your 9500?

I was thinking that, too. I was originally going to put it in the 9600 when it gets …
I also noticed there is a dealer selling new G3 500 upgrades for the 7500 et al Macs for $199.95. That's kinda stupid since Sonnet still has stock of those for $50. 8-o

Not bad! I could use one of those in my beige G3, but I'm too cheap.

Does that one SE have a SuperDrive floppy or is it 800K? If it's SuperDrive, then you will save yourself half the battle; 800K floppies can be done, but you'll run into many brick…

I'm running 6.0.8.
I don't think it's in the Trash (no bulge) but I'll check. I did delete the old System Folder so I could reinstall 6.0.8 with the SE/30 specific files (It had …
I've been eyeing these off at $10-$12 apiece - if I found them at $6 I'd probably do just as you have done.
