Here's the review, and here's the manufacturer's page (archive)
Note that they claimed that only their own "modified" G4 ZIFs would work properly.

I am now the owner of a 1GHz TiBook.
What I'm curious about is, it has a 1GHz G4 and can boot into OS9 (pretty nifty), although I hadn't played much around in OS9 (just got it and…
What if you made it so that your signature had just three lines.

I'm happy with my B&W G3 with maxed out RAM (1 GB), upgraded 1.1 GHz processor (well, it's advertised as 1 GHz but the setting goes to 11, er, I mean 1.1), and OS 9.2.2. I'…
There is an exception. The hack *MUST* be done for the 5400 board. However, the 5500 board will work *WITHOUT* the hack, but there might be issues with PCI. I'm not sure if this is…

An overclocked 1.42 GHz Mirrored drive door will probably be faster than a 7447a because the Apple processor has 2 megs of L3 cache in addition to 256k of L2 cache as compared with…
Don't see why that should be a problem - The VGA output looks pretty standard, and 67HZ is about as basic and common a sync rate as you can find.
But if for any reason it is an is…
I looked a little for that upgrade. I couldn't find it. Anyone want to point me toward it. I have heard rumor of it for a while. I remember doing a bit more research on it a long t…

It has to do PAL, otherwise I wouldn't be getting any colour input from my VCR. It was a case of switching to PAL in software and away it went.
If there's one issue still holding …
Outstanding work. I just got my first 1080p display this weekend, so I might drag the 7300 bedroom system into the workroom and try your driver at 1920x1080.

Its better than it was, but really, I second Mars478's suggestion to put all your systems in one or two lines, like he has. There's no real reason for them to all be on a separate …
