There was one auction where a G5 went for 1200.00... Not bad...
But I'll keep it...
No reason for me to get rid of a good machine...
I was just wondering and just wanted an opinion also...
I'm just looking now for a good video card for it, the Nvidia 6600le is not cutting it anymore...
1500.00? WOW!!! I didn't think it would be that much... I posted it up on craigslist for 800.00 then lowered it to 600.00 and I got no-shows.
Then I was looking at it and I'm like How can I get rid of my G5...........
I also have a iLugger for it... I like to keep my stuff like new and that...
it's a Dual core, 2.0GHZ, 16GB ram, 1.4TB HDD's, Nvidia 6600LE Vid card, Pioneer DVD DL?
Where can I find a GOOD pcie Video card (in case I do not sell my G5) better than the Nvidia 6600LE card?
Thanks In Advance
Jim
Recieved the Airport compatible PCI card and it works great!!!
it's nice to have the wireless now...
So my upgrading is done on this... it as far as it will go... but it's a very useable Powermac G4 AIO....
How do I attach pictures?
I really didn't think the G4 was going to make a big difference but it does.
I mean you cannot play any OSX games but I do have OS 9.2.2 for my old games.
The internet runs smooth...
I have run some dreamweaver how-to movies on it and it is acceptable frame rate...
Got the G4 upgrade, runs great...
It's alot snappier than with the G3....
and I recieved my Apple DVD-R and that works great...
just wait ing for my ebay pci wireless card.. it states that it is airport compatible...plug and play as long as you have 10.3.9...
The 400 MHZ G3 I bought on eBay has 1m cache but going to G4 like you said will be faster.
Yes but xpostfacto runs into problems if you zap the pram or reet the nvram...
Or if the pram battery goes dead (Even tho I bought a new one for the AIO)
I'm going to put Mac os 9.2.2 and then 10.2.8.
I really don't want to use xpostfacto, too much of a pain.
I'll be happy with the G4 and 10.2.8.
with the G4 it should be a little snappier than with the G3... Right?
Cool!! I just ordered a ZIF G4... I didn't need the jumpers as I already have it set for 400mhz with the G3 upgrade that I put in, I WAS looking on ebay for a G4 Ziff b4 I bought the g3 400mhz...
so I'll have a Powermac G4 All In One... Cool!!!!
THANKS!!!!!
Jim
This thing is like new tho, i've seen alot on ebay that are yellow and marked up.
They are really heavy... I thought the emac was heavy...
but since this is my only "Classic" mac it's a keeper...
runs my old games and office 2001 great.
I just have os9.2.2 did have 10.2.8 but wasn't...
From Craigslist for 20.00 MINT... He thought it was broke, it just needed a pram battery.
Originally it was 30.00 got him down to 20.00
Upgraded the CPU (From eBay) for 10.00 to 400MHZ w/1meg level 2 cache.
Upped the HDD for 15.00 to 120GB.
Memory pc100 to 512mb from 32mb for 20.00.
Vram...
I bought a raedon 9700 off of ebay. it's alot faster than the stock video card. but its basically a radeon 9800 but with less memory. for 89.00 it wasnt a bad deal.... I'm happy with it... and my G4 is alot faster...
My presto plus in the CC worked fine. But as stated I sold My CC on ebay... just too many computers on my desk... I kept my G4 Dual 1.42 and got rid of everything else.. the CC, eMac and the dell peecee... I have a TB storage in my G4 so that is gonna last me... [:D] ]'>
Well now I dont have to worry about speed with the CC, I sold it on ebay. I needed to do some house cleaning, had too many computers on my desk. I got rid of my CC, eMac and dell pc. Anyways thank you all for your responses.
Jim [:D] ]'>
ok what other enhancements am I missing for a color classic? I got the vram expansion in. external cd, a trackball... and yes I tried the settings and it did make the internet a little faster.. thanks!
People who come over are amazed that a 16 yr old computer still looks new and goes on the...
