Whoah cowboy! The PB 190 is a 68K processer machine. I think OS 7.6.1 is your upper limit. The PB 5300 is pretty much a PB 190 with: A) PPC Processer (100 or 117 MHz) B) Better screen and video C) And I think a higher RAM ceiling. That's why many parts are pretty much interchangable betwwen them. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
