I have a 1.25ghz DP G4 MDD with a Radion 9000 pro video card running 10.5.8. I have it connected to a Sony 46" LCD TV via a DVI-HDMI adapter. I use it mostly as a PVR, a video play…
OS X support for Spark 2.82 — #3
I found a link for the Tiger patch - they didn't make it easy. Archive it while you can, it probably won't be there forever.

My MDD is temporarily offline for repairs, but the highest I have used was 10.4.11. It works great! As I recall, there were only a couple of features which didn't work, and they we…

Yeah, I mounted it on my G5 and moved it back over to the 9600.

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

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…

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…
