PB 3400s are not G3s, so they cannot run beyond 9.1. It runs fine on mine w/ 144mb RAM.
I'm pretty sure a USB/PCMCIA card will work fine as well as a Firewire2Go card. After I got my 3400 I read a lot of info on whether the slot (top slot) was cardbus compliant. MCE offers a cardbus conversion for $100, but from what I can tell it's not necessary. http://www.wwc.edu/~frohro/Cardbus/Cardbus.html Gary K wrote: >I know these questions have probably been answered before, but until one >has a 3400 powerbook... >1.
