The unit I'm using on the internet is an eMac 700, with OS 10.2.
Linked this little Jewel with an ethernet crossover cable to My PTP225 with Sonnet 500MHZ G3 Card (Yes, I pulled the accursed PowerLogix G4 board out of it). RESULT, I spent nearly an hour last night getting the eMac reconfigured so it would get back on the net. Everything was gone, ISP #, the whole works.
Yep, I'll just use this for email and burning CD's.
PTP and PCP with OS 9.1, I love you. The same goes for my NEW, old Triumph. Yes, the word is "reactionary".
As noted in my previous reply, I'll just hook a 16" monitor to it and boogie on.

Looks like the vaunted 2930 Adaptec Powerdomain card which put the 'Pro' in
PowercenterPro by kicking HD throughput up from 10 MBs up to 20 MBs.
PowerComputing had taken the pedestrian Mac 7200 and, similarly to converting a 6 banger Mustang into a Shelby Cobra, turned it into what Apple feared most... a low cost alternative to the upscale 7500's and 8500's.

Recently, a friend tried to upgrade a beige G3 to OS 10.3 (Panther), and in
doing so fried an Atto scsi card, which was stock on the 333 MHz scsi HD
iteration of that box.
It proved possible to reboot the machine past a grey screen, and reformat
the HD, only by using an Adaptec 2940 card pulled from a Blue&White.
OS 10.3 doesn't seem particularly friendly towards some SCSI cards, so caution is advised when messin' around in G5 territory.
