I still have my Video Spigot card.  It was a very cool thing to have back in the day, being able to run anything on Macintosh screen. Since no adapter seems to exists, looks like …

No. As far as I know, nobody ever made a PDS to dual NuBus adapter, and if someone did, you'd need an extended case, like the one you pictured. If you could run a second NuBus car…

Back in the old day, Macintosh LC had very limited space and was limited to either 2 dlsk drives (original LC) or 1 disk drive and 1 hard drive, no internal CD or other drive optio…

Might be cheaper to get a dead one in nice cosmetic condition off eBay than to try and professionally hammer out all the dents.

This is not Elfen posting but his youngest daughter, he's in the hospital for observation as it looks like its a bad allergy issue that is he undergoing. Details tomorrow when I ge…

Leopard flies on the G5, but obviously it's useless if you want to run Classic.

Yeah I agree. I have decided quite easily to make this now my main desktop machine and as you can see, cleared the desk for it. I am quite impressed just how easy it is to make thi…

Well, it kinda depends on if you want to run Classic, or just OSX as a "modern" computer.

So its not worth installing 10.5.x on a G5?

Well, since the newest G5s (including the Quads) were released well before Leopard was released, contemporary versions of Tiger ought to work, and indeed, EveryMac says that they s…

Yes you can but the only supported version of 10.4 on a G5 (at least quad core) is 10.4.11. Anything else crashes and creates panics. Don't waste your Saturday like I did trying to…

No problem.  John from VintageMicros (http://www.vintagemicros.com/catalog/index.php) also sells small packs of appropriate feet - I can't find them on his site right now, but I kn…

You can run Classic Mode in OS X on a G5, correct?

Thank you david__schmidt!

with dual LCDs for $100. I may have been able to find a better deal, maybe I got screwed Click to expand... A pretty good deal, the dual screens are worth the $ 100 anyway
