When you install Leopard on a PPC Mac, does it even install any x86 code? And vice-versa?
I know the Applications folder will have Universal apps, but what about the actual OS gut…

Oh yeah...I've wondered about the same thing myself. I remember back in the mid 1990's I used to use a program called "I Love Native!" to strip useless PowerPC code from FAT binari…

I went back today. I think you confused the Classic for a Color Classic. Everything else listed is still there.
I would like a classic mac, but I want one I can add ethernet to. I…

If they have a color classic, I think I will make space for that. Actually I have a use for it. I may swing by this afternoon and see if it is still there.

I noticed Leopard on there and this got me thinking...
Why doesn't someone write up a script or something that will remove x86 code so as to have our own powerpc Snow Leopard?

I didn't see the Color Classic when I was there; maybe they brought it out after I cleared the shelf. I remember a couple years ago I saw a Color Classic set there for the bargain…

I was there yesterday and two weeks ago (visited my bro)! Last time, I got a IIci but decided against the IIsi and the LCIII, glad they went to good homes. When I was there Yesterd…

I figured I would let another collector give it a good home, instead of just …

I picked them up on Sunday. Someone should go and get the LC II, LC, WGS 6150, Classic, and SE that I didn't have room for; I'm lucky my girlfriend isn't shunning me as it is, and…

Hey when were you there? I was there on Saturday and saw those items. I thought about picking up the Atari ST, but decided against it.

If we could only get Houston ComputerWorks to do the same thing. I'm always seeing at least one old Mac in the back due to get chopped.
