I thought the maximum OS for it was 10.2.8, but if it'll run tiger, i'll put that on instead.

Very nice. If I may ask though, why 10.2.8? A machine like that is just crying for 10.3 or 10.4...not to mention that you'll be able to run more modern software, too

Nice. I love my BeigeG3MT. Maybe not as much as my 8500, but still plenty of love left over for sharing.

ReallyCool Dude! Talk like that got me almost ran off another fourm.The G5 Intel Elite would tell you to kick that crap to the curb like they did me. I say stick it to the man an…

Over the past couple days or so I've been working on a G3 mini tower I picked up on ebay for $30 shipped. So far all I've done is clean it up a bit, get it running, and check to se…

I stand corrected. WPC54GS, not WRT54GS. My bad. I guess I was wrong about assuming OS9 compatiblity. Good luck!

Linksys WRT54GS / WRT54G v1 / use the Broadcom chipset / It ought to be recognized reasonably well in OS9 because it will be mistaken as an Airport card. Click to expand... The…

That Linksys device is a router, not a card. Also, the original Airport cards used chips made by Lucent/Agere, not Broadcom. They are known in the wireless biz as the Hermes chips…

WRT??? If I'm not mistaken, that is a router and not a card (my router is a WRT54G v2)

The best one that I know will work is the Linksys WRT54GS (the S is for Speedboost). Also the Linksys WRT54G v1 will work. I do not know about version two. Both of these Wireless G…

If you're happy to settle for 802.11b, rather than 802.11g, an ORiNOCO card will work well on there, and even allow you to use the standard Apple AirPort software.

I think the Sonnet Aria Extreme card can do both if I'm not mistaken. It's kinda hard to find, but most used mac computer sites have it http://www.powermax.com/parts/show/c39916

Im looking for a Wireless card for my powerbook. Im going to do a dual partition for OS 9.2.2 and OS X. What wiress card can be used with OS 9 and OS X?

Actually, the hard drive has to be formatted with "Mac OS 9 drivers" installed for the OS X disk to see it. You might be able to partition the drive with the OS 9 drivers on the on…

An OS 9 Install disc won't even 'see' the drive if OS 9 drivers were not installed when the drive was formatted, and before OS X was installed. You can install OS 9 into the same …

it wont boot anything but osx.. its irritating

Ahem, iMac, not iMAC. As long as you find an OS 9.1 disk, you should be fine.

Well.. I've got an iMAC G3 600mhz with 1 gig og ram currently running 10.4. I was wondering if it's difficult to install Os 9 on this thing, since I miss th OS.. please help. It's…

Yes, please clarify that. Thanks!

AFAIK, the Pismo has only one CCFL, at the bottom. In fact, I can't think of a 'book of that age that uses more than one. Coius -- do you have a list of which "older" books you're…

meh, for that price, you can't go wrong. Also, doing a replacement on backlights is a BIG thing. Very hard to do, so if you aren't in for spending a few hours doing it, go ahead. …

I'm going to take the plunge and get a backlight for my Pismo. Does this look like a trustworthy seller? http://cgi.ebay.com/New-LCD-CCFL-Backlight-APPLE-Powerbook-G3-14-1-WXGA_W0…

I bought a raedon 9700 off of ebay. it's alot faster than the stock video card. but its basically a radeon 9800 but with less memory. for 89.00 it wasnt a bad deal.... I'm happy…

G4s in (most) any form are great machines. I'm still rocking out with a dual 500MHz G4 tower as my main desktop, happily chugging away at Leopard. My main portable is also a PowerB…

My presto plus in the CC worked fine. But as stated I sold My CC on ebay... just too many computers on my desk... I kept my G4 Dual 1.42 and got rid of everything else.. the CC, e…
