If yoi can find a used Sonnet 500 mHz for under $25 it might be worthwhile. I know it doesn't sound like much of a spped bump but you get a larger cache with the Sonnet hence better performance. Also, max out the RAM to 1 GB. See if anyone has an ATTO SCSI card and a 15K SCSI hard drive for sale cheap. I set up a YIKES! with those mods for a friend of mine and it's been running well for the past 5 years, giving her internet access, email, iTunes, word processing, etc. with 10.4.11 as the OS. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
