It's cropped up a few times on the Apple Discussions from time to time.

I never heard of that being possible. Maybe you'll want to go with an external solution.

I heard it's plausible but no one has made software for it.

Hi I have a old but cool Powerbook G3 Pismo and an Apple remote. Since the Pismo has an Irda port I wonder if I could pair my remote with my Pismo.

Didn't the Quad G5's have the max RAM of 16GB?

Quad G5 sounds so cool...just to say you have it. Nonetheless, an Intel Mac Pro will be on my radar in the next few months. No immediate plans as they are pricey but just gorgeous.…

It's striped using Apple's drivers? I think the G5 was the first to support booting with Apple's RAID drivers. Some forum posts indicated MDD may also support this. Xserve definit…

PS: Can G5's boot into OS9? Not run classic in OSX, but reboot with OS9 system folder? Click to expand... Yeah, what Christopher said, No. That's because G5 is a 64-bit process…

Not even all the G4's could boot into OS9 directly, you just had classic support under OSX. Click to expand... I think the last gen MDD were the non OS 9.

Thanks for the replies. I am interested in keeping up with Apple technologies but want to resort to the used market. I thought the G5's were a robust machine at a steal these days,…

If you're really on a budget I think a G5 can be a good buy still. From the sounds of your post though, 10.5/10.6 compatibility seems like a big deal and PCI/hard disk expandabilit…

I saw go with the Intel Mac. As mentioned by others, the G5 Macs do have reliability problems. The iMac G5s were all affected by the capacitor plague, despite Apple's repair exte…

For me, I would say Intel all the way. G5s seem to have a number of reliability issues - from faulty PSUs to liquid cooling systems leaking - if you Google around, you can see ima…

The only thing stopping me from selling my MacBook Pro and getting a quad G5 is the risk of not being able to run 10.6 when it comes out. I would much rather have a tower than lap…

G5's (towers) seem to be very pricey still. I think you are better off with an Intel if you plan on using it as your main machine for a few years.

Depends on your needs. Do you mind using software that isn't the latest? Do you mind, if you need software that comes out in later years that it may not be compatible? And, what …

I am just inquiring right now, but I was wondering what this forum's thoughts are concerning the pros and cons of G5 versus Intel. I don't necessarily need the latest and the great…

I tried Time Machine on a non core graphics card once. Don't do it, its so slow. Click to expand... All the Mac would do is sit there and backup. It's so slow now running OS X …
