Just be aware that even if you install a USB 2.0 card, under Mac OS 9 it will still only perform at USB 1.1 speed (12 Mbps), since OS 9 does not support USB 2.0, and unfortunately,…

Thank you all for the friendly and helpful information/advice. i use my p6360 to run some "old" midi audio sequencer programmes that when they were ported to OS X some of them die…

Vine Server (formerly OSXvnc) is nice in that it allows multiple VNC sessions to be open simultaneously. Use Fast User Switching, and launch Vine Server in each user. Each user h…

It looks like it will be a bit longer before I clean the board. I thought about going in to work to do it today but it looks like we're in a blizzard now here on the US east coast…

I should probably get a USB card for one of my Performa 6360's (I have 3).

Interesting...pooh, I hope it's not the VRAM but we shall see. If it's a dead duck, I'll repost...get the parts somewhere useful. I expect this is a 180mhz. because it's only comi…
