I have had several 7100s over the years and after 1998 they all had G3 cards. These macs are usable for many things but not OSX even if you could get past the NUBUS issues.

Well, sort of. But with a Sonnet G3 card in, everything goes a lot quicker, so it becomes more usable.
But I wouldn't recommend spending money on such an enhancement without some very good reason. The future lies with OS X and open source UNIX, and I think that's where your money should go.

Peter is correct about needing PCI. Another thing: The fastest video available for the 7100 (Prism GT or Thunder 24) is hardly usable for web browsing in OS 8x and 9x. A 7100 could never be usable for OSX on video performance alone. It would be more than slow, it would be unusable by any measure.
