    ATA SSD in a PDQ

    OS9 definitely feels a little snappier, especially since I only have 128MB RAM... but it could be my imagination... it's quieter that's for sure! :) I am installing OSX today... Lubuntu was unusable, was suuuper slow, not sure if I did something wrong so going to try again later

    IIci Cache Card

    I wonder if he is confusing Farads with ESR? there are certain caps rated for special purposes and frequencies... for example in some CRT circuits there are special high frequency caps that look like they are waaayyyy too large for the ratings because of the frequency the circuit operates them...
