I'll probably get a B&W but it's far from that G4/533. Also no processor upgrades as the VRAM. I found someone with one long ago but it was $500. Shipping is absolutely exp…

Remember that the iMac is/was the low-end machine, so you'll get better performance from the desktop/tower G3. Click to expand... You would think so, but I found some interesti…

I just want something like a first touch with OS X, but price options aren't attracting, that's why I chose a G3 xx( No joy about Headgap's being blocked in Brazil without reaso…

A low end beige G3 is not great with OSX unless you use an older version like 10.2.x.

Remember that the iMac is/was the low-end machine, so you'll get better performance from the desktop/tower G3.

I think it will be around October, so lots of time to decide. In which one XPostFacto for Panther/Tiger works better? Remember, I'm not picky, I just want for OS X and features n…

I would pick a beige over an Imac, expecially if the beige is a tower.

No, thanks. This will not be now. Still, do someone know why Headgap's store is apparently blocked here? I was able to access it thru a web proxy. EDIT: Mike, if the 80% import t…

Also, I know that G3 iMacs require maximum VRAM (6 MB) for acceptable OS X performance, however NO ONE IN THIS COUNTRY ( 8-o ) sells VRAM. Click to expand... I have some VRAM…

G4s? The cheapest one (a Power Mac G4/533) is $200. Also, I know that G3 iMacs require maximum VRAM (6 MB) for acceptable OS X performance, however NO ONE IN THIS COUNTRY ( 8-o …

You really need a G4 for OS X to feel enjoyable and speedy, even if you are only web browsing or whatever. And you'd be best with Leopard, because its the most secure and software …

I just want a real Mac for OS X (believe or not I even didn't tried PearPC) and features which emulation can't do (RAM disk...). I would get a Beige G3, but I don't have a USB card…

With a Beige G3 desktop or minitower, you have the option of upgrading through PCI slots, and upgrading the machine to a G4 in the future. With the iMac, you get a nice compact mac…

It's Brazil. Anything common before the Beige G3 is the Performa 6200/6300/6360. No 68k Macs. It's an auction site.

Where are you located? Those prices sound kind of high unless you're looking at some kind of store.

I will buy a G3 (very cheap here), however the question is the subject. Many come without keyboard or mouse, and no money is spare to buy a USB card, so I might get the iMac. Befo…

You don't need to remove the CRT. From the manual 1. Disconnect the short speaker cable next to the speaker. 2. Note: If you are certain a speaker is faulty, the easiest re…

I believe you have to remove the crt. But I could be wrong.

Also, I'd just like to say whoever thought it was a brilliant idea to put so much plastic in the *internal* chasis out to be drug out into the street and shot. This stuff gets VERY…

Okay, I'm stumped on this one. I've torn apart my 350Mhz Idigo because I plan on robbing it for parts in case my 500, or another machine I'm hoping to get, goes down (hopefully not…

Ok, I understand. Thanks for the info!

But I certainly can connect to an OS X machine when typing its IP in the Chooser. Isn't that the same? Click to expand... No. When you enter an IP address in the Chooser, you …

Does the new model AirPort Extereme route AppleTalk packets over the wireless interface? Click to expand... That's a good question. It certainly does over ethernet, since my ol…

Does the new model AirPort Extereme route AppleTalk packets over the wireless interface? Peace, Drew

Ok, strange. I can ping every machine in my network (wifi and wired) from the Pismo in wifi, and I can ping the Pismo from my MBP (in wifi too) and from other OS 9 wired machines.…
