ATA/66 in beige G3? — #13

In theory, DVD RAM capable (if you can get a DVD RAM slot loader) or CD-RW. 75 Gig drive, 1.5 gig ram, and maybe Ca$h could swap the Rage 128Pro for an AGP Radeon when they're avai…

I don't see how you could fit a Raedon, Voodoo, or GeForce in a cube for a few reasons. 1) The Voodoos are way too big 2) The GeForce and Raedon both require fans or large heatsin…

1) Voodoo will definitely NOT fit. It's way too big and way too hot. a quad V5 (6000) will raise the ambient temperature by almost 10C! 2)Radeon has a built-in fan on board. Might …

Aliases to dual CD-ROMs — #4

For anyone who cares, I tried this again the other day. Mac OS 9.1 seems to have solved the problem; I can put any disc I want in any drive that'll read it. Go Apple!
