In a message Pablo Roufogalis L.<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>writes: << One of the things I've enjoyed the most from my Wintel clone machines is that whenever I upgrade one of them, several others receive an upgrade too from the replaced parts, in a daisy chain fashion.
For example, I recently upgraded my server's second HD with a 200 GB unit. Its former 120 gig went to my non-work computer and its former 80 gig went to my workstation as its second disk. The former second disk (40 GB) became my workstation boot disk and the old boot disk (20 GB) went to my Beige G3. The Beige's old disk (15 GB) became my server's boot disk and its old 6 GB boot disk was given to our building caretaker's daughter. Whew!. >> Just did the same on my Macs. Took the HD out of the main G4 Mac and put in the main G3 Mac, then took the HD from the main G3 and put it in a personal G3 Mac.

[snip] << My personal opinion is that it would be great for the growing Mac community to be able to do the same. >> We do . . . well at least I do. I don't believe the upgrade "daisy chain" (good term BTW) is limited to Wintel clones. Just my opinion--glen (digest mode) -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
