I upgraded my 2003 1.25GHz G4 iMac 17" several years ago with a IDE to SATA adapter, a 256GB SSD, and the max (2GB, 1GB internal and 1GB at the bottom plate). I installed 10.4.6 from the retail Tiger DVD with no issues.

^ Thank you. All of this is pretty spectacular. On top of my G4 Minis and 2003 17" G4 iMac, over the last few years I've picked up several PPC iBooks and PowerBooks for 10.4 and 9. I know the laptops are much less compatible overall, but some of them run 9 natively so the possibility of...

Please let us know your experiences.

I think Snow Leopard is spot on for that CPU. You've got access to a ton of earlier PPC software with Rosetta plus the later Intel software. Snow Leopard is also very perky with those machine specs so it's a pleasure to use. I've run 10.11 El Capitan on a Mini with similar specs and it's...

Thank your for this resource, it's one of those things you don't think you'll need... until you do.

This is a very nice design and nicely executed. Well done!

I love both Mac and Amiga but for completely different reasons. From the user standpoint, my completely unscientific opinion about why Mac squeezed out Amiga is that the Mac UI was much easier to learn and teach than the Amiga UI. I'm not saying one is better than the other, just that the...

I think it does. Everything works remarkably well considering the processing power is extremely low compared to other and/or newer Macs. It wakes and sleeps perfectly and there are no graphics issues (as long as root patching is done, just follow the prompts). I started using this MacBook Air...

Nice find. I've got a 2015 13" i5 and it performs nicely with OCLP. Boot times are slow, but once that's done it runs Sequoia far better than I ever would have expected.

Perhaps the alien implant in my skull is emitting a frequency that is competing with Mac Bluetooth audio connections. Jokes aside, I wonder if this is caused by the "Low Energy" features in Bluetooth 4+ client devices communicating older Bluetooth that doesn't fully support newer features...

I had disappointing experiences with Bluetooth audio on all Macs PPC and Intel. They would pair but inevitably lose the connection and have difficulty pairing again. This spans all of the Macs and different Bluetooth audio devices I've owned from 2006 until now. I've rarely had issues with...

Assuming the video signals from the motherboard are understood, a RGB2HDMI might work. It has helped a lot of other people get video signals from vintage gear onto LCD displays.

According to the Github repository, version 1.0 was released on August 25. https://github.com/BlackBirdLC/Aquafox/

^ Thanks for the explanation.

Sorry, but I can't imagine why. Could you please explain this reasoning? I've been using ARM SBCs for emulation since the RPi1 was released and I've appreciated the upgrades with each generation because it allows the emulation, networking, storage, and video output to perform better. The CPU...

Opps, duplicate post.

Very cool. I'm going to play with this later!

(y) Excellent work!

That's a really good point: I wouldn't be particularly happy with my 68K PowerBooks if I didn't have a 3D printer to make replacement mounts as I have yet to encounter one that doesn't have at least a few of those broken. And epoxy skills, and...

My recommendations: 140, 145, or 170 for System 6 compatibility and because they're good B&W PowerBooks. 165c or 180c for 68030 color and System 7 variations. These have video out with a dongle so they can be used with an external monitor. 520c, 540c, or 550c for the top end of the 68K line...
