Is 256 Megs of memory not enough for a mac, it seems fine for me right now... SCSI is just so darn expensive now a days and I'd rather go with the inexpensive ATA drives. I may wa…

can't seem to find that voodoo card for $60 at outpost... sounded like a deal...

Get a Voodoo3 3000 for 'bout US$100, that'll make a big difference with graphics...

You can always paint it while your waiting for OS X PB to come out on the 13th. Crackle spray paint looks really cool. I know, I know, not much of a hardware hack, but it's a bit …

No way. lime green. Then put strobe stripes on it and put a repro AAR sticker on it. Mmmmm...1970 AAR cudas....mmmmm Ca$h PS: HOODPINS! YOU NEED HOODPINS!

Nah, give it a nice black finish... Cipher13

You guys are crackin' me up... Do they make 4wd units for these things too?? ------------------ - Eric [This message has been edited by IFLY2HIGH (edited 09-07-2000).]

I think the Voodoo deal just fiinished. It was like $89 before rebate and had a $30 rebate. You can still get great prices on those card around the place though.

Since you are into this Mac cheap, look around for good deals and start replacing stuff with newer parts... I have been tweeking my 8500 for 3 years now and it will come VERY close…

Sounds like a aerious machine!! You got some pictures of some of the modifactions?? The Zip dirve for the Floppy was impressive along with your cooling method... Thanks... ------…

In theory, it'll work. That's how people got the V3s to work on Macs using unsupported beta drivers. However, I recall reading something regarding there is a fundamental differenc…

Thanks for the reply. I will e-mail them as well. What led me to think that there is not too much difference between a card for PC and a card for Mac is because 3Dfx and ATI did …

I read somewhere that since current macs only have 2x AGP slots and most new PC's have 4X there was a difference. The 64Mb PC version can evidently bottleneck a system in a 2x AGP …

Sorry, i knew I was wrong as soon as i posted my reply so i looked up the ATi site. I couldn't find anything which would suggest the PC version wouldn't work with the Mac but I'll …

A PC Radeon card will not work in a Mac. In fact, with the exception of Voodoo 3 cards, no video card is cross-platform.

I saw some painted (or something) iBooks on a Japanesse site, but there was no English translation. The one that struck me was black except for the center portion which was a neon…

I think it is "Newer" that has just come out with fast G3 upgrades for the Wallstreet. You could get one of these. Other cool stuff would be if you could find a DVD module for it …

Well, seeing as how it doesn't exist, you'll have a hard time finding it.

The closest you can get to that is to hook up a 17" display to an iMac DV or iMac Special Edition.

I think he means that 17" monitor that someone stuck iMac innards into. That one. IT was a sony or something. Ca$h

Try this link for a 21-inch iMac.

While this may be counted as a Mac Mod, you already posted in the Peripherals forum, and it is not in good taste to go around posting the same thing in more than 1 forum. I have on…

The chips are rated at 450mhz, so instead of having possible heat problems with O/Cing them by 13mhz they chose to go down one step. Of course if I had one that would change. …

I am starting to think there is a conspiracy against iMac upgrades. The reviewers could be mostly owners of blue or graphite towers so they don't realize the importance of iMac upg…

true true... WASSSUUUUPPPPPPP!!?!?!?!??! Heh. Ca$h
