Hello guys and gals, here is what I found on my G3 Ser. SB913SWCG9D Ethernet ID *00 50 E4 D8 6A* 310 mhz 512 k cache 64 mb sdram HD CDrom So you are right, no DVD but I have some good suggestions for which to install. I'll pick up some more ram and then go from there. I have a disk for Tiger 10.4 and I am getting a OS 9.2 to load if I want or need to. any other suggestions will be appreciated. By the way, I am not to hot on mac info but if you cook, I am a retired chef and have some awesome recipes.

There should be a sticker that has two barcodes and says something like 400MHZ/1MB CACHE/64MB SDRAM/6GB HD/DVD-ROM/KB This means that the machine has a 400MHz CPU, 1MB of CPU cache, 64MB of RAM, a 6GB hard drive, a DVD-ROM drive (and a DVD decoder card on the video card, same with DVD-RAM), and i have no idea about the KB. Those are the specs from the factory, and it should help with determining if your machine has a DVD drive. Also, you can flip the drive door down and if theres a DVD logo there, you have a DVD drive. If not, you most likely have a CD-RW drive. On Dec 21, 2009, at 5:28 AM, Lawrence David Eden wrote:Mine is just blue side panels and front. I tried a OS 10 4 tiger and it won't read the disk.
