I looked.6500's never came as a 350MHz model they topped out at 300.
grats on the grab, i love my 6500.
yes, nice form factor..But the 6400-6500, was a bear in getting it open to piddle around inside..LOWEND MAC, Labeled them 'road apples 'I like the 6400, but I think it has the most terrible video card of all macs built in standard. Your lucky you have the PCI one.
I've owned five 6400s over the years, and I'm now down to one:
300mhz g3, 168mb ram, 10gb hard drive.
I'm trying to recall WHO came out with the G3 cards for the 6400..I really need a G3 upgrade for it, already have a spare 128 GL to go in.
The very first company to offer G3 upgrades for the 6400 was VImage. They were also the first company to offer G3 upgrades for the 4400/7220 and Tanzania clones. Shortly after that, Sonnet, Newertech and (i think) XLR8 followed.I'm trying to recall WHO came out with the G3 cards for the 6400..I really need a G3 upgrade for it, already have a spare 128 GL to go in.
(did they have one for the 6500 ? )
Sonnet, Newer, and maybe (?) microMac...
maybe none of the above...This might be an ebay item..
Also exclude the 6360, as that was one of the first with the internal design change from the 5xxx/6xxx models.The 6400 was never considered a road apple, just the 62xx-63xx
So, has anyone here got a G3 upgrade they'd consider selling me
