Re: What is adequate DSL speed/cost for 450MHz G4

No, a faster computer will not require a faster internet connection for what you are doing. A 1.5mbps (1500kbps) DSL line is fine for any internet video besides HD, which would never play on your G4 anyway.' Chance Jonas Lopez wrote: What is adequate DSL speed/cost for 450MHz G4 A barrage of

If that doesn't work, I know my MDD has the paperclip hole on its optical drive, so you could try manually opening the drive that way. DAN A CURRIE wrote: John Carmonne wrote: Hi All I want to know how to open an optical drive tray to start a G4 MDD. John Carmonne Yorba Linda USA Sent from m

Re: I have an idea...

I'm almost 100% positive you'll never get SL running in Virtual PC. As far as I know, Virtual PC does not emulate SSE2, a processor technology required to run any Intel Mac OS. Besides, running an OS like SL in an emulator would be very painful and slow. Doug McNutt wrote: At 18:07 -0400 4/20

He said earlier that a Sawtooth worked fine using the same power cord and outlet, so it has to be something in the G5. It almost sounds like something got fried in the power supply, perhaps a surge or spike got it? That's the best guess I've got. Richard Gerome wrote: Did you check all th

Head over to db.xbench.com. Find your model of PowerMac G5, click "set as comparison baseline," then "compare to other systems," and find the quad-core Mac. It'll put one machine's ratings in red and the other in blue, making the comparison very simple. HTH, Chance M Christol wrote: I want

The speed of the internet on the iMac will be affected either way, it's still the same internet connection whether you use a router or internet sharing. However, cable internet is fast enough that with the kids just playing internet games, the slight speed drop may not even be noticeable depend
