Quadra 605 all the way.... but cheapest? Click to expand... Mine were five NZ dollars each, so that must be about 50 USD?

Quadra 605 all the way.... except I'm not sure if I've ever seen one advertised... and they can be a bit pricey... is my gut feeling... so smallest maybe, & 605 is good, sm…

I want something... I think I could live with os 7.1 if I needed to, but os 8.1 is better.... I'm not keen on os 9, but am keen to try os 10 I need to transfer files and could do…

depends on what you're going to want to do with it. If you want one with relatively current-day functionality, you gotta find something that does at least 8.1. Honestly, 9.1 is r…

What is the cheapest/smallest mac? The contenders I can think of are; Quadra 700 Powerbook duo 280c MacMini I want something... I think I could live with os 7.1 if I needed to…

That was just what I was looking for! Thanks!

The G5's time has definitely come. Apple and Adobe are both dropping support for it and all other PowerPC systems in their next major software release. What I'm waiting for is the…

I don't have any pics, so I'll try to be as descriptive as possible. Looking at the back ports with the lid off, the "Hi" ROM (341-0662) should be in the slot right below the batt…

Thanks JRL. I managed to find the message he sent me (finally) and turns out it was the 68851 PMMU he was after, not the 68881 FPU

Would somebody happen to have the LC III motherboard layout? My LC III was shipped to me without the ROMs installed and I need to know the correct position of the ROMs so hopefully…

I believe it was IIsi?

I personally second what Bunsen said - the first generation Power Mac G5s are actually now Vintage...which basically is Obsolete unless you live in California, not to mention that …

Ah, ISTR someone wanted one for an original Mac II, the only machine that can use this one.

Awesomesauce Just MHO, and I am no mod here, but I reckon if Apple's abandoned support for it and shunted it off to the "Older machines" page, then it belongs here. ISTR PPC w…

Opera runs on Jaguar. Version 9 (the current version) runs, but it unsupported; so may be buggy. Opera 8 (download link) runs perfectly on Jaguar.

Congrats on the PowerMac G5 dually. Definitely a nice score.

Panther is faster than Jaguar. On an iMac G3 700 MHz, I would recommend upgrading. This upgrade would unlock the ability to use more recent browsers, such as the latest Camino. …
