depends on what you're going to want to do with it. If you want one with relatively current-day functionality, you gotta find something that does at least 8.1. Honestly, 9.1 is r…

I can confirm there is absolutely very little wrong with placing bare electronics on a carpet. Indeed, I have tested motherboards, PSUs, hard drives, etc - yes, basically a whole c…

That was just what I was looking for! Thanks!

I unfortunately don't have other cards to try, and am at limited funds to really "experiment." is there a list anywhere that might say what brands/sizes/models of CF cards are UDM…

The G5's time has definitely come. Apple and Adobe are both dropping support for it and all other PowerPC systems in their next major software release. What I'm waiting for is the…

I don't have any pics, so I'll try to be as descriptive as possible. Looking at the back ports with the lid off, the "Hi" ROM (341-0662) should be in the slot right below the batt…

Thanks JRL. I managed to find the message he sent me (finally) and turns out it was the 68851 PMMU he was after, not the 68881 FPU

I believe it was IIsi?

Try turning off images, java and animations. Should be much faster then. Click to expand... Otherwise, you'd need probably a 600MHz for "real" web browsing.

I've had that kind of stuff lying all over the place, including carpet, and have never lost a single thing from static electricity. ...not that I condone this kind of behavior, I'…

I was just too hyped and forgot about the little things... Typical me. It all works fine though.

JDW, I saw your pics in my 68kmla flickr pool's RSS feed last night, and they're incredible! This is really a great job, with stunning results. Thanks a lot for sharing. Your pictu…

Yes Bunsen, I already warned him about that, as he did the same with the Radius video card. Not trying to make an example out of you here Mars478...I'm just posting this as a p…

I personally second what Bunsen said - the first generation Power Mac G5s are actually now Vintage...which basically is Obsolete unless you live in California, not to mention that …

Ah, ISTR someone wanted one for an original Mac II, the only machine that can use this one.

Awesomesauce Just MHO, and I am no mod here, but I reckon if Apple's abandoned support for it and shunted it off to the "Older machines" page, then it belongs here. ISTR PPC w…

I think it's just a typo. I'm guessing the author meant to write "mid-2004" but accidentally wrote "mid-2009" because he was thinking about "10.2.9" from earlier in the sentence.

That's what I'm wondering..... But I don't know, as I am running os 8.1 & I have done this sort of thing many time before... I set up a RamDisk and tried saving to that..…

maybe I should make it 33mhz... Click to expand... Even so, it would still be pretty much the same speed at web browsing. Try turning off images, java and animations. Should be…
