I'm considering purchasing a pb g3 wsII 300mhz, running 8.5 with 192MB/8g
hd, DVD card and drive.
Haven't worked or played with macs since 1994 (can you even imagine???) so
I'm essentially clueless - but hey, I found this group so I can't be beyond
help (I hope).
I've read how to trick it to get beyond the 192 and get to 512 for RAM.
That's good - but as far as operating systems go - where does that max out?
How far down the road is it before the latest web browsers won't work with
an "ancient" OS?
Also, with everything SCSI are there any 3rd party adapters out there for
plugging in digital cameras/dv recorders?
I'm not trying or expecting to run the world with this computer - I'd just
like to own a mac again and am wondering what the bottom line expectations
should be with this unit. What will it do and what will it not do.
I'm open to any and all suggestions and even heavy criticism at this point -
wish I was as savvy as most of you on here, but all that went out the window
10 years ago - and God knows in the computer world, a day is as a thousand
years.
TIA
Jeff
