The 9400, while good for a integrated GPU, is definitely not faster than a card like a X1900. It's roughly the same speed as a dedicated X1600, maybe a little slower than a 7800. …

I plugged the power cord into the SE the whole way, completely fine. It would not turn on. I wiggled it. It made electrical sparky noises, and I flipped the power switch on again. …

I did not say that your G5 was not useful, or even that a new Mini is inherently more useful, I just said that benchmarks indicate that unless you need 16gb of ram (and can accept …

I still think the G5 is a bit faster... but that is my opinion.. The unit and all of the parts might be out of date but I works for me.... I still love the PPC platform... And t…

Run Smart Utility. http://www.volitans-software.com/smart_utility.php The built in SMART status nonsense, is well, nonsense and nearly useless.

Yeah, because of fast disks and having 16gb of ram. If your G5 had a 2.5-inch 5400rpm disk and only 2gb of ram, the Mini would likely be faster. There's also the whole "real world…

I don't know.. I've got 16GB Ram, ATI Raedon X1900 Vid card... it seems like my G5 is faster....

Not really. 1.6GHz Core1 chips and 1.6GHz Core2 chips (the original mac mini and the original macbook air) outgun the G5s in memory and processor performance. Like, all G5s except …

I wouldnt jerk it around too much I dont know if those jacks are attached to a board, but if they are you could cause some damage

I plugged the power cord into the SE the whole way, completely fine. It would not turn on. I wiggled it. It made electrical sparky noises, and I flipped the power switch on again. …

I believe it was an upgrade. Radeon 9600 IIRC but I can check for sure tomorrow.

Wow! 8-o I wish I was the seller. :lol:

I was loading Tiger onto an eMac. I booted off the external drive and opened Disk Utility and noticed the internal hard drive was red, and SMART status reported it was failing. I …

Huh interesting! Oh and My "Lets Play a Game" Thread is there :b&w:

Stock video card or 3rd party?

I just installed Leopard on this(fresh install) and ever since, when I scroll on a web page, the area around my mouse pointer moves down the page(its hard to describe, but heres a …

I thought mini's were supposed to be faster? Click to expand... If it's graphics, then no. a 2.3Ghz G5 will win out over a mini. Actually, a 2.3Ghz SHOULD win out over the min…

I recieved the Mini yesterday it is nice for a second Mac. It seems like my G5 is faster...or on par with the mini I installed 10.6 on the mini. the mini is the 2009 model... wi…

Here's the damage (sorry about the blurry shot)... [edit: okay, I'm apparently having issues linking to flickr...stay tuned here's the link for now: http://www.flickr.com/photos/…

I might be able to provide a donor Wallstreet, if you're interested. I'm not sure what I have on hand, but I have more than one in various states of nonfunctionality and it would b…

That's a shame - was the plastic around the hinge damaged too? Hopefully you can find a donor WSII/PDQ and transplant a new hinge on. Must have been a hefty fall - these machines…

Wallstreets have a bad hinge design, many died years ago from broken hinges that took out the video cable, and many these days have atleast one bad hinge that keeps the display fro…

Since you have had and eventually will have it open again, could you please add some observations here?viewtopic.php?f=21&t=11280 Click to expand... Sure! When I have it …

After months of lusting for one, I finally got my mitts on the last of the ADB PowerBooks. It's the 300MHz model and the lot came with plenty of extras: DVD drive w/card, Wireless …
