From: Tim Collier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The last 8600 was introduced in 1997, still doesn't run OS X and still only has 3 PCI slots all based on a 604e processor. Isn't that comparable to a (PC 486? Or being generous an early Pentium I?).
In my experience I'd say a Pentium II 200 = 604e 200... ---
Keep using your antique until the day you find that it won't run anything that we modern users are running.
I agre wholeheartedly!!
We run:
- iMac FP 15" 1GHz for music, Internet radio and film - MDD 2x1GHz for all my hobby stuff & files - iBook 14" 800MHz for Internet (anywhere in the house) - AlBook 15" 1GHz for work
All running Panther.
50MHz bus, 5V RAM, beige casing, seems a long time ago!!
I remember the Mac SE users who didn't want to go to 14" colour once upon a time...
I would'nt go back if you paid me!!!
