Yup, it requires a native G3 to run. There are hacks to install 9.2.x on non-G3s, but from what I've read the 9.2 just added Classic-mode additions for OS X. If you're running OS X too, then you might want to look into the hacks. Otherwise it won't add anything useful. Scott Holder -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
