Come to think of it, as far as laptops go it isn't actually that small!!!

Seeing that people were impressed as to how well this little system managed Unreal under Mac OS 9, I thought I'd show you this Quake III Benchmark under Mac OS X, as this little machine performs delightfully!!! :) I'm beginning to think that this is the perfect little retro machine for...

A quick demonstration of some classic games running in Mac OS 9 on a G3 iBook "Clamshell" laptop.

I'm glad to hear this, as these are pretty cool!

Here you go!

That's a third stage compressor disk from an RAF Tornado. When I eventually get around it, I'm going to mount it into a glass-topped coffee table! Here's a closer look at the turbine disk: Here's a model that I made up in Maya 6.5 on one of my SGI's as a concept:

Today I carried out some tests on the Sonnet upgraded G3 B&W and have come to some interesting conclusions, which I'll share later! (It's a significant upgrade in some ways, but not so significant in others!)

It's great to see the progress you've made! Thanks for all the valuable info! :)

Here's a video showing one running in such a machine:

That's pretty damn nice!!! :)

Does the system simply not detect the drives or are you not able to partition them? The reason why I ask is because I had to make use of the disk utility on the OSX install CD to get my SSD's partitioned on the SONNET TEMPO SATA PCI card in my G3. They simply did not want to be partitioned by...

You'll need such an adapter to get those drives working: I was originally thinking of using such a setup in my QuickSilver and MDD machines, but now I think that the Startech solution coupled to a standard SSD's a better idea!

Have you tried an adapter like the one that I posted above?

Hi Jenna! :) The Sonnet Tempo SATA PCI's pretty hidden in there, but it is there! I wouldn't mind fitting one of these beasts as well: Giving the machine ATA 133, two USB 2.0 ports as well as two extra FireWire 400 ports!!!

The Startech 40-Pin IDE to SATA Adapter It uses a Marvel controller, so it's a good product!

My ZIF SONNET 1GHz G4 CPU Upgrade arrived form Japan today and it's now fitted and working perfectly: Here's the updated System Info: Here's the new Blender Test Result: (test.blend) It's pretty much twice the speed of the 450MHz G3, so it's performing as advertised!!! :) Here's...

> The firmware update checksums match those of my dumped B&W G3 ROM. Thanks for confirming that my firmware is correct! > I have a Griffin gPort which connects to the internal modem port to add an external serial port which I use for Open Firmware debugging. I purposely purchased and fitted...
