Wireless PCMCIA card for Wallstreet

2011-06-12 Thread Les

Hi all,
I have an old G3 Wallstreet laptop that I would like to use in the  
public library. It is now running OS 9.2.2 but, I would like to  
upgrade to OS X. How high can I go with this? OS X 10.2? Also, I am  
considering the Netgear WG511 Wireless-G PCMCIA card. Will this work?  
I am considering this, as the wallstreet doesn't have a USB port.  
Will I have to subscribe to a wireless plan with an ISP to use the  
Internet at the library/coffee shop etc. Or is this free? Most  
everything I have read pertaining to this card mentions Windows - has  
anybody successfully used it with a Mac Wallstreet?

Many thanks, Les

You can go as high as 10.4.11 using XPostFacto 4. You'd need to max  
out the RAM, and perhaps get a larger HD (OS X wants about 4GB free- 
space for temp files and cache files, so you'll not be able to fit a  
working boot OS X installation onto the 1st 8GB partition that the  
Wallstreet allows, you'll need a larger 10+GB partition for OS X,  
which will normally mean upgrading the HD.


Honestly, upgrading this Wallstreet isn't a very good idea. The costs  
of upgrading the RAM, HD, wireless card, and perhaps USB card is  
greater than the cost of a used PC laptop that can run OS X Leopard,  
Snow Leopard, or Lion. I'd sell the Wallstreet and get something a  
little more modern. The Wallstreet isn't a good internet computer, it  
will never play any streaming video smoothly in OS X, whereas almost  
any cheap laptop with a Pentium M or Core Duo CPU will play smooth  
video and run circles around the Wallstreet.


If you're going forward with upgrading the Wallstreet, I can help you  
off-list, but the process is complicated because the Wallstreet is  
limited in many ways, including the 1st 8GB partition issue, the Rage  
video issue, and other possible issues in OS X. Read the XPF forums. I  
wouldn't pay the XPF fee, the forums are dead and XPF has zero support  
now, it's abandonware. XPF works great, but the Wallstreet is a tough  
nut compared to newer Macs and PC hackintoshes.

Hello Bruce,

Can you please explain what spazzing out means. I'm from The Netherlands
and cannot find it in any dictionary, nor on my Mac and nor in my paper
library.
Sorry for the, perhaps stupid, question but I'm just curious.

To spaz.

To convulse and spew, sometimes violently.

Defn 4 looks pretty good:
