Nice!

The only part I'm thinking might cause me a headache is the mounting standoff a for lack of a better word on the bezel. They were snapped half way off and in such a way I don't know how to reglue them in perfect alignment without gluing to screw into it.

Thanks, everyone for your input! I will do my best to repair what I can while I continue to search.

I don't know all the details yet. What I do know is it has a blown PSU. The video card has Apple and vga outputs but the machine arrived shortly before I had to go to work so I got no time with it beyond unboxing. I will definitely update this post once I have more details! Oh, it does have a...

Daystar Digital Genesis MP. The later ones came with up to four 233MHz 604e processors. Adobe had special plugins that could take advantage of them but otherwise it was a rare app that could take advantage. Still... It was king of the hill during the era of computing that got me started on Macs :)

Err... Hadn't thought of that. Possibly? I don't have the know how and I'm not sure who to approach about it but maybe someone on here will see this and be able to make some suggestions. Thanks for the idea!

I've been after this thing for over a decade. I'm glad to have it but boy am I pissed at UPS! I'm guessing that finding someone willing to part with the top two bezels is going to be even more hard than finding the tower in the first place. But if any of you have any leads or would be willing...

Again, thanks everyone for the technical advice.  I've used Linux casually for the last several years and I'm comfortable with that, and if it comes to it, I may put NetBSD on here.  My thoughts though, are that if I'm going to run a non Apple OS, I might as well use x86 hardware and find a...

Thanks, everyone. I shall mull over everything and rethink my battle plan!

Thanks for the heads up. I'm hoping to run a version of OSX Server, so instead I'll look into Apache and managing the content myself.

It will host a low traffic website, most likely running Wordpress as a content management system.

In my Quest for Towers... I acquired a beige G3 server to compliment my 9600s. I found it through LEM swap for a great deal. G3 Server, 333MHz processor, 512MB RAM, DVDR drive from a G5, SCSI card&drives (still need to verify size). This machine will possibly become the we server for my...

I guess my problem is the lack of industry knowledge surrounding this stuff from that era. I will continue looking and see what I can learn.

Thanks. I'm hating to say it... But my inexperience with all this has me now thinking my best bet is going to be my G3s with a/v personality card and maybe Adobe premier. I'd rather a 9600 but just don't know enough to guarantee I get the right turnkey setup with all the cards, cables, and...

That make sense since I'd listed getting my 8600 down here as an option. Is the Aurora Fuse or Igniter considered the better option? What software was used back in this era? Final Cut Pro 1.0-2.0?

Is http://m.ebay.com/itm/261750093628 the card you're referring to?

Thanks!

As an additional question: what exact components would I need to source in order to have a full Avid video capture/editing setup?

Thanks. I'm planning (though plans change) on sticking to OS 8/9. I Need to pay better attention to what I have as I didn't think my 9600 had ANY inputs, only the single output on the graphics card.

Instead of adding to my conquest thread, I figured I would start a new thread for my question. One of the tasks I'm hoping to use one of my 9600s for is converting my fiancé's old camcorder videos to digital. Most of them are from before her father passed away and she has expressed interest in...
