I was just wondering how much cash you are putting into this and whether it might be more economical to get a higher level system or look at the mac mini.
I know my beige experience was to create a computer that would match the capabilities of my clamshell blueberry ibook. I spent in total about $110 dollars and I ended up with 2 working beiges. One system in perfect and the other has a flakey video card which is fine as long as it is not moved. So I felt my money was well spent but as soon as I looked at processor upgrade cards or video cards, everything was out of my price range. -- apple jack >-----Original Message----- >From: G-List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of GDB-B&W-X.3.7 >Sent: Friday, February 11, 2005 10:01 PM >To: G-List >Subject: Operation frankenbeige continues... > >Okay, I have the motherboard, wings card and firewire/usb card mounted >in the new case.
