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…

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…

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I personally second what Bunsen said - the first generation Power Mac G5s are actually now Vintage...which basically is Obsolete unless you live in California, not to mention that …

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.

Just as update: this discussion is being continued on csa2p. There have been 9 replies since yesterday.

Aaaannndd.. It's up to 4.5GB

What is that supposed to mean? Are there others making a 10.2.8 compatible browser with up to date features? (Oh Mr. Porter is the best Will Hay film EVAH!)

It makes me wonder why, if Opera can turn out an up to date browser that does not require Tiger, why can't anyone else? Click to expand... Because they do.... Code: MAC…

I can second what Gil and LCGuy have written. The plastic HDD sled used by Apple for IDE (as they were, so long ago) was/is different in detail from that for SCSI HDDs. It has a …
