Now my rebuild of Beater will make it completely and entirely pimped out! Well . . .

. . . maybe except for the Solar Lid that Cameron has his sights set upon . . .

. . . but I've never wanted or had a need for that.

Heh! [] ]'>

NICE! :O For the record, if I may ask - where'd you get the G3? As a broke high school student I could never afford one back in the day, and of course now they're rarer than rocking horse shit.

I got it almost eight years ago, when the town's free WiFi was my only connection. I got it straight from . . .

Holy crap! I just looked up the invoice from Sonnet, it's dated 5/19/2005! Eight years ago to the day in about 30 minutes! ;D

I've been reading the box, it looks like the 16bit card may go into the more toothsome 1400c/166 I'm cobbling together. Beater is a lean mean OS9 machine and I can't give up a precious user RAM slot. Beater will be getting one of the 8bit cards so I'll be able to use it on the BookEndz dock.

It might go into one of the planned 1400c based hacks along with one of the other two G3s.
