agreed with @NJRoadfan as pretty much everything that had onboard or pci firewire ports pretty much used this one only apple extension itself from 8.5 through 9.2 (with a small sidenote that dv-only firewire functions in earlier os too tho, they already covered the basic details here...

thanks daniel hadn't quite looked for more datasheets yet that would show variations like you know and hmm I do wonder nevertheless because it seem a lot of 750's and accelerators are not labelled as L's you know?

sorry to be a little offtopic here but I was rather curious this morning and went to look up a few things for myself.. https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/fact-sheet/PPCCPUINTFACT.pdf shows that the later 603e and any 740 appears to be a drop-in swap but I'm curious how much play the lack of 32-bit...

this seem to directly mention the 'pro pedals' in the description btw? https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/gamesprockets-175 cheers either way!

@NJRoadfan well to be quickly honest about it theres two things I see here in name of 1. theres no AUII onboard for networking otherwise and 2. it being an apple system, many people in some countries probably expected it to be able to have a modem internally (last I know I still never have ever...

@Daniël hm right I had thought it was a bit too long awhile, ah well..guess that indeed unless you really wanted to use megaphone/alike I guess theres no issue in kicking the modem outside (aka external) as to be able to thump in an another pci slot internally instead

@Daniël the only one somewhat unrelated things I could wonder about is that if you manage to 'break' a comm.bus into a pci card slot instead, does that mean you also have an unused serial bus to pipe out to its own minidin port elsewhere as well or is that too dependant on the same one bus...

found the new additionals to the 3-slot hack topic interesting .. and regarding daniel's remarks yesterday, that had me simply wondering if the vram controller was hard-limited or could someone crazy enough had possibly doubled it or so on the logic board itself? (not for any sort of performance...

i'm just sleepingly joking (yeah i need to go to bed very soon so..) but I wonder if the very first version maybe had absolutely nothing but just the one lone opti ic chip alone on it? talk about trying to figure how little to get away with in a somewhat weird way to do it?

yeah @_AP this is one source I like to use (even if I'm not 1000% certain it was perfect but mm) https://macinfo.de/hardware/boards-g2.html and as you can see even the newest biggest powermacintosh in name of 9600 still was only 50mhz out of the box at the most .. so powercomputing was abit...

that crescendo is a fixed speed card which makes sense regarding having to clock the caches next to the cpu as well etc. and beside just about all apple-sold boards would only had been in the 40-50mhz range for most part so thast also what the accelerators are locking for to. a...

ah hm thanks @croissantking sure sounds a bit more confusing than it should be regarding the two different rev's in any combinations either way re the personality card, although this is more for a diy someone than a "just set up computer and go" someone i'm needless wondering if 'different...

as I recall from somewhere quite some time ago, I don't know if it was a firmware and/or physical board thinge but a logic board marked as rev.a had a limited ide controller (compared to rev.b/newer marked boards) .. forgot if this was about was masters-only drives and/or 128gb limit btw

i've somewhat maybe wondered a bit about the two physically alike ibooks still having different ports yet .. but never really been bothered asking as ibooks in general just didn't quite interest me much anyhow doesn't surprise me too much about @aladds's response as I always had suspected that...

digidesign pretty much had processing cards for nubus, and also i'm pretty sure some form of nubus cards (but I don't recall now if that was digidesign or someone else instead) had spdif and/or aes3 in some way too

not tried this software yet but the only one optional thing I'm maybe curious about would be humidity? I mean i know this would 'break' the 4x2 layout you currently have but hmm yeah

mm long version it is.. was curious about the particular g5's left for donation/sale because of bad/noisy fans and no incline to sort them out, silly enough i actually got up close to one of these such towers late last year as the kijiji person had both one of these and something else I was...

sorry if its already been mentioned at some point in the past but i'm curious how fussy their logic boards are with whether the fan was physically present or not and also regarding using a quite different new fan (which would have a different feedback if thats a thing with the G5's logic board)...

was about to go out when i noticed this, i think this is quite interesting and although i use weather.gc.ca website myself i probably won't had mind trying use something like this from the desktop instead too btw its up to you but mind seeing what the system7today forum people would think of...

yeah I have to be inclined to point out that 8500 and 8600 may seem physically same but are functionally different enough to not directly drop-in for each others [and likewise to 9500 vs 9600] .. even macguru shows different edge notches and not-same power button location for their logic board...
