NICE I'm lucky to get 5mbps down on mediacom (mediacunts) cable Luckily at work I have 35mbps down and 20mbps up

I remember reading the spec on the G4 - doesn't support DDR memory, so it was just for a faster memory bus, and would bottleneck at the bridge. I'm not sure about the last revision though. I'll try and dig up what I read...

The funny thing is G4s can't take advantage of DDR...

My powercurve is a PCI based mac. Not sure what OS I will run on it but I would like USB... it's not a requirement, but it would be nice. I'm actually considering running 7.6.1 on the old thing. I don't think I have any other good installs of the "classic" mac OS.

Is this even possible? I have a powercurve 601 (with a G3 upgrade) sitting in my closet that I'm going to get running sometime. Could I add in a USB2 card and have full USB 2 functionality? My logic says no, but maybe I'm wrong...

I might have another full 040 if you'd like it... [:)] ]'>

8 points isn't much at all. A quadra 700 is 100 and this system clocked in at 108 only because of the disk score.

add in lots of SCSI cables and a 13" RGB monitor!

The only part my 605 beat out the 700 on was disk. Everything else was on par - I have a 4GB drive in there... probably 5400rpm... it kicked the butt on most of norton's benchmarked macs.

Here's what I got for $60 from a local guy on craigslist Quadra 605 with original disks IIci 4x phonenet cables 2x serial cables SimFarm in box IIc carrying case 2x ADB mice 2x Keyboards System 6.0.8 disks System 7 disks ClarisWorks 1.0 install disks... and a few other things

Never mind! Bad image of the CD. Now I've got 7.6.1 on it and it screams. I installed Norton 3 on it for benchmarks and it's 8 points higher than a Quadra 700.

So yesterday I got a Quadra 605 (among other things). I cleaned it out a bit, installed a full blown 040 and an ethernet card, and am trying to install 7.6 from a burned CD. It won't boot off my LaCie external SCSI CDRW drive, so I put in a 7.5 startup CD and put the 7.6 Apple CD extension on...

I had one of those monitors that would lost the red in the picture after 3 years of having it. Sometimes a few good smacks on the side would clear it up [;)] ]'>

I won the ebay techstep

USB wifi withOUT USB2? Ewwwww!!! I would try to find an airport card! - well I guess 12mbps would work for internet...

free?

I've got that funky MIDI looking cable for the original genesis...

Ahh good suggestion! I'll need to mull it over what I'll do - but that Mac idea is great!

humm? Bueller?

Got one from an Xym reader/member. I only paid a few bucks too and I also got 2 full blown 040s. I might have another so I'll have to check...
