    More pallets tomorrow

    yea but that can be anywhere from a Yikes to a Digital Audio G4 and the DA G4 as basically the same (in regards) sept for a few differences like the case design the 12v power lead to the CPU and a few other things. they could be QS G4s cause i dont see the lines in the handles

    Beige G3 Crashing...

    i ran tiger on my unpartitioned 120gb HDD with the help of xpostfacto for a long time without issue. xpostfacto removes the 8gb limit if the drives larger then 8gb. if you was to try to install OS X (testing using 10.2) on the 120gb hdd without xpostfacto it will not allow you to select where to...
