Beige G3 or iMac G3? — #10

I would pick a beige over an Imac, expecially if the beige is a tower.

Beige G3 or iMac G3? — #9

No, thanks. This will not be now. Still, do someone know why Headgap's store is apparently blocked here? I was able to access it thru a web proxy. EDIT: Mike, if the 80% import t…

Beige G3 or iMac G3? — #8

Also, I know that G3 iMacs require maximum VRAM (6 MB) for acceptable OS X performance, however NO ONE IN THIS COUNTRY ( 8-o ) sells VRAM. Click to expand... I have some VRAM…

Beige G3 or iMac G3? — #7

G4s? The cheapest one (a Power Mac G4/533) is $200. Also, I know that G3 iMacs require maximum VRAM (6 MB) for acceptable OS X performance, however NO ONE IN THIS COUNTRY ( 8-o …

You really need a G4 for OS X to feel enjoyable and speedy, even if you are only web browsing or whatever. And you'd be best with Leopard, because its the most secure and software …

Beige G3 or iMac G3? — #5

I just want a real Mac for OS X (believe or not I even didn't tried PearPC) and features which emulation can't do (RAM disk...). I would get a Beige G3, but I don't have a USB card…

Beige G3 or iMac G3? — #4

With a Beige G3 desktop or minitower, you have the option of upgrading through PCI slots, and upgrading the machine to a G4 in the future. With the iMac, you get a nice compact mac…

It's Brazil. Anything common before the Beige G3 is the Performa 6200/6300/6360. No 68k Macs. It's an auction site.

Where are you located? Those prices sound kind of high unless you're looking at some kind of store.

Beige G3 or iMac G3? — #1

I will buy a G3 (very cheap here), however the question is the subject. Many come without keyboard or mouse, and no money is spare to buy a USB card, so I might get the iMac. Befo…

Unix for 8-bit Apple — #16

Well, the browser is a damned handy thing... with serious limitations. It's not really much good for modern web content, but it is a great way to download files to your Apple II. Y…

Unix for 8-bit Apple — #15

I don't think not programming for Contiki disqualifies you from commenting on its use. Anything about the (user perspective!) differences between 1.x and 2.x, using the UI or …

Unix for 8-bit Apple — #14

Unfortunately I don't have much to contribute... I haven't done any programming for Contiki. As far as using it goes, I'm running the 2.x version on the web server and I use 1.3 fo…

Unix for 8-bit Apple — #13

Maybe luddite could write a bit about his Contiki experiences for us, and explain the differences between the 1.x and 2.x branches. I recently read something about 2.x being focus…

How the hell do you replace the speakers in a G3 iMac? — #2

Also, I'd just like to say whoever thought it was a brilliant idea to put so much plastic in the *internal* chasis out to be drug out into the street and shot. This stuff gets VERY…

How the hell do you replace the speakers in a G3 iMac? — #1

Okay, I'm stumped on this one. I've torn apart my 350Mhz Idigo because I plan on robbing it for parts in case my 500, or another machine I'm hoping to get, goes down (hopefully not…

I played with it a bit last year... I was hoping to get a proline bbs online, but the message board part is pretty archaic and I wasn't up to the task of writing a new one. Neat to…

I took a look at ProLine last night, since it apparently has a lot of Unix-like architecture. Click to expand... Except I don't believe it does multitasking, does it? Click …

I think the closest you'll come to something that works out of the box w/o a lot of work is Contiki. I don't have any experience with it, but some people around here do.

Thanks for the links. I have no idea if I'll be able to pull it off or not. Looking around, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of success stories. With more searching, I found t…
