I'm not really concerned, I won't be using OSX with it much at all. Thanks for the info though, kind of a shame to think OSX makes so many invisible files.

What you you think, was this a good deal or what? — #11

My 2.3 was introduced a little bit before the dual cores... so it's not that old, maybe in computer years but its still a VERY capable machine... 2.3 GHz dual 512/160 introduced 2…

Family Guy is produced under OS 9. I've seen behind the scenes video. Pretty awesome to know that, even if none of you like the show. Click to expand... Where's this behind th…

I Love The G5's they are tanks!!! But just B/C they aren't supported doesn't mean they are no good... I really was never into LAGS (Latest and Greatest Syndrome)... one can go bro…

Also formatting floppies in OS X is a bit hit-and-miss. It won't do the part where it goes back and eliminates bad blocks. You also don't get the 100% same full capacity for some…

$2,184.89 as the winning bid. Just over two and a half grand AUD. Wow!

What do you guys think? — #11

Wow, $40 is a bargain, really. I guess it's different over here (they never sold outside the US) but I paid a lot more than that for my system. Although it was more complete and i…

I will run from a 1400/2400/3400/Kanga/Wallstreet/Pismo adapter as well as from a Duo ps if that's any use.

Power Mac 9500 startup woes — #5

It already had enough good RAM chips in it, since I was able to boot it to OS 7.6 a few months ago. I assume that the CUDA reset is that small button on the motherboard? I pressed …

Power Mac 9500 startup woes — #4

It probably wasn't a great idea but I don't think it would have done any permanent damage. Have you tried putting in one good (compatible) RAM chip and resetting PRAM and perhaps C…

What you you think, was this a good deal or what? — #7

It all depends what you are going to do with it. $225 for a G5 you intend to use (and is up to the challenge) as your main mac is a good price, but $225 for something to add to you…

Yeah, here in Australia, they commonly go for $800 - $1200...I don't think i've ever seen a G5 go for less than AU$800, ridiculous, if you ask me. Personally I think you paid a go…

If thats US$225, I think you paid a fair price for it. If you ask me, most PowerPC systems are massively overpriced these days, and I suspect that the values of most PowerPC system…

Yep! That's an MMI drive. You are lucky you got one that was made just right. A lot of them had trouble with excess lubricant on the disk surface spinning to the outside edge where…
