If I remember correctly, Adobe was the only company to make use of the multi-processors in their software. You could put them to work with Premiere and digitise VCR tapes.
You could turn your 9600 MP into a server for your older Macs.
Personally, it would make a great machine for Civilization or...
I second @cheesestraws, eBay is a good suggestion.
Clean up the Macintosh, get it to work and take lots of professional quality photos of it both inside & out to anticipate the questions that will come. Pack it well and prepare it to be shipped to be shipped overseas.
Then watch eBay and...
@sircabulon I made up an Excel file some years ago with network games for the Mac.

First Class too!
Did you get an AEK in its original box?
@cheesestraws: if you'd like photos of Swiss trains & stations, I can take some for you. We have no car and I am out & about on Swiss trains.
You could try the PCI cards with the RTL8169S chipset on it.
These are gigabit ethernet cards. I have one in my B&W G3.
I don't know if the driver works below Mac OS 8.6 though.

This plastic is so strong that when my brother had a car accident some decades ago, his Wallstreet was propelled from the backseat, through the front windscreen and was left unscathed and working. I have it now.
1. SATA PCI card can be gotten at reasonable rates if you are patient. SSDs are so quiet & fast. @rabbitholecomputing has some at: https://shop.rabbitholecomputing.com/collections/all
2. ATi Radeon 9000 Pro or nVidia GeForce 4 MX will handle any game in Mac OS 9 or Mac OS X 10.2 | 10.3.
3. If...
Keeping/rescuing CRT-monitors is not at all an easy decison.
They are bulky, use a lot of electricity, are in need of repair and that repair requires working next to high voltage.
Sometimes they require a specific video card.
Well done sir for keeping these alive!
They are as much a part of the...
An ATI Radeon 9000 Pro 64MB is a great card for that system. The Ti-4600 won't bring much more and will set you back many hundreds of dollars.
It is a great feeling to have a system built by yourself ready to go.
Keep an eye out for an Adaptec PowerDomain 19160 (also called 19160N). They don't...
CD5150» Is it possible to Install Sorbet Leopard on G4-upgraded G3 B&W?
I expect it to be very sluggish on a 500MHz G3 with 16MB ATi graphics card, like an SE/30 running Mac OS 8.1.
And? Did it run well?
I have about 6 Macs from the 1980s (with my IIfx getting an honourable inclusion and 4 (out of 5) of them had working, original/period-replacements that still work. the IIfx came with a massive, double-height 500MB HD that worked the last time I checked it.
What worries me more, though, are the...
I got Mac OS 8.1 installed & running on to my IIfx but that did involve editting files with ResEdit as well as using a Gestalt-masking utility.
You will have to fool the Mac OS installer that your IIci is a PPC from Apple.
Try the Macintosh Garden for an image of the original installer disk. It might be that the Kingston card shipped with the clone and thus has drivers on the image.
My gut feeling, however, is that this PCI card uses chips supported by the Macintosh drivers and that special drivers aren't...
@David Cook Have you benchmarked it yet? It's faster than a IIfx but has a much slower bus.
Often graphics cards were customised for specific monitors and if it is a DE-9, then it may very well be a portrait monitor ot two-page-display.
I would have a look at Mac magazines from 1993 & 1994 and...
