Nice to see it going again though. Time for triple boot System 7, OS 9, OS X ? You're almost there...

@joshc I'm thinking 7, 9, X, and a wildcard Linux distro for the maximum silliness...

Could probably get BeOS going as well?

What base logicboard does it have? What is the closest Apple machine?

A 9500 IIRC.

@Phipli The LB is essentially a 9500 with a PCI bridge providing four of the six PCI slots instead of doing it properly. Besides that and the second CPU socket (only usable with official SuperMac P-series CPUs, which are stupidly rare) there are only a handful of minor differences. PCI cards with bridge chips do not work in the lower slots, which I am currently trying to hack my way around.
