Re: RAM needed for OS X on Lombard

Officially, the bottom slot can take a 128 low-profile DIMM and the upper slot can take a 256. Unofficially, many people have put 256MB low-profile DIMMs in the lower slot for a total of 512MB RAM. OWC seems to be a good source for this because of the lifetime warranty and guarantee that they m

RAM needed for OS X on Lombard

I have a Lombard (333mhz) running OS 9, which I would like to upgrade to Panther. I have 192megs of physical memory installed, 128 on the top slot and 64 on the bottom. I have often heard that for OS X, the more RAM you have, the better it runs. I want to know how much RAM would be sufficient to

Re: Jaguar or Panther on Lombard?

They will work better in Classic, and I would go with MacOS X 10.3, personally. You have to purchase one of them, and it might as well be the newest. 10.3 runs very well on my Lombard 333, with Photoshop 7 running well natively. I used Office 98 a few times, and it feels almost as snappy as und

G'day Greenfield This is a longshot-but in your predicament, it's probably worth a try. I haven't had this exact situation, but I did with the HP 1200 laserjet ( a big problem for Mac users, unlike the support HP gave for their real printers, the 4/5/6MPs). The idea is to use Apple's LaserWrite

Jaguar or Panther on Lombard?

I tried to find the answer in the archives but didn't see an appropriate thread. Which OSX should I settle on for my Lombard 400/384 RAM? 10.1 (which I have but have not installed)? Jaguar? Panther? I really don't want to buy new application software. I most frequently use Microsoft 98

opening the wallstreet display

Re: Buying an iBook

I purchased my ibook 700 from Powermax and was very happy with them. They had factory sealed new units available at $649, lower than anyone else at the time. I placed my order and received the ibook 2 days later, just as promised. This was my first time using them but would return and do business

Re: OpenGL on a Wallstreet II

Hi, I have developed Open GL code on my old wallstreet II under OSX. It runs in software mode, no benefit of hardware acceleration (as far as I know). To compile using gcc I include in my Makefile: INCLUDE = -I/usr/X11R6/include/ COMPILERFLAGS = -no-cpp-precomp -flat_namespace MACLIBS = -F/

Re: OpenGL on a Wallstreet II

Yeah, I was slightly off... OpenGL is available to any application using MacOS X, but no Powerbook before the Pismo has drivers for hardware acceleration of OpenGL, so expect 2-5 frames per second on intensive full-screen apps. On Jan 15, 2004, at 10:07 PM, Laurent Daudelin wrote: on 15/01/

I just replaced the original 4 GB drive in my wife's 266 Wallstreet with a 20 GB drive. I had partitioned the drive into 2 partitions with a 8 GB first partition in anticipation of installing Jaguar.
