So, everyone says that the Kansas-based x600s are much better than their Tsunami-based brethren. A quick search has told me that: -Kansas machines can support the coveted 604ev CPUs -Kansas machines don't have L2 cache soldered on the motherboard -Kansas machines don't have problems with G3...

Spotted this 9500 on the 'Bay... http://tinyurl.com/aadhoe Looks like it has *all* of its PCI slots filled... but with what?? I recognize a few SCSI cards, but what is that huge connector? Also that one with three rows next to the VGA connector? What say ye?

Hey All - I have a 12" PB G4 867 MHz that just stopped working one day. According to my cousin who was borrowing it long-term at the time, on Sunday everything was fine, and then on Monday it didn't work at all. Symptoms: -Plugging in the new-style AC adaptor makes the ring light up green...

Hey gang - I just got a Daystar PPC upgrade for my Q950, and decided to install 8.1 onto a spare partition (yay PPC optimization!). However, after installing 8.1, my Quadra insists on booting to the 7.5.5 partition. I've tried the Startup Disk control panel on both partitions, booting from a CD...

Hey all - Anyone have any luck installing A/UX 3.0.1 on anything with a SCSI-IDE adaptor. I've got an ACARD SCSI-IDE adaptor on my Q950's internal SCSI bus, and I've tried to attach it to various things - an old Quantum fireball, a CF adaptor, a 6.4 gb WD drive. Regardless of what is attached...

Hey gang, How big can an HFS (aka Mac OS Standard) partition be? I always thought they could be huge, but I've been having some trouble formatting a CF card with Disk Utility in OS X 10.4 & 10.5. Any partition roughly equal to 1.5 gigs results in an error message saying "Size not compatible...

Hey all - I've got a huge conquest... a graphic design firm near me was dumping their old macs to make room, and I was able to help myself to a bunch of olde beige boxes... including: -3 PM 9600/200s -2 PM 8500s -1 PM 7300 -3 PM 6100s (all Performas one with DOS card) -1 PM 4400 -1 Quadra...

So I have access to a couple of PM 9600/200s, and I think I'd really like to use one of them to replace my current 8500 setup, as I'm really feeling a slot limitation. I can move my PCI cards, G3 upgrade & SCSI-IDE adaptor over in a pinch but... The kicker is, the 8500 is a really nice AV...

Hi Everyone! I'm new here (in the sense that I've been lurking for years, registered a month ago to PM and now am finally posting), and I just posted a NuBus wish list. But that seems awfully forward! A little bit about me: I'm a university student studying engineering, music & Russian...
