well.... no, the Wallstreet has open firmware. Open Firmware is on all Macs with G3's or better, and even some 604 machines (9600, i think, had Open Firmware). The Startup Manager is just an Open Firmware application. It requires OS 9 or better, a machine with an AGP graphics chipset, and (if applicable) any relevant firmware updates. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
