G4/800. Also running Tempo Trio, Radeon 7000/32, and a Maxtor 80G
IDE hard drive. I'm also pumped up to 800 meg of memory.) It's
been fast, stable and reliable for the past 3-mos; not a crash to
report. I have iLife '05 loaded (sans Garage Band. Just don't
need it....), and burn dvd's on a Pioneer DVR-S606 (the encased
version of their DVR-106). The audio and video ports work, though
I have to run OS 9.2.2 to input my old non-digital stuff because it
seems the programs I'm using written for OS X assume one does not
have these analog inputs. Ditto for my old SCSI scanner.
I won't say it went on easy. However, most of my problems involved
a learning curve for me. And heat problems with the CPU. (After
two bum fans from Sonnet, I scavanged a couple of well-used but
still running CPU fans from some discarded Pentium-based machines,
and all my crashing ended.) Now that I know what to do and how to
do it, it would be snap, relatively, should I ever have to do it
again. My only real issue is I can't get the dvd burner to be
recognized on Tempo Trio's USB 2.0 port. Firewire? No problem.
Now, I'm seriously considering the jump to Tiger....

Dear Unsupported:
I am wondering if anyone has had any success installing and
running OS 10.3
on a Power Mac 8600/250?
Please excuse the text snag, Roland (but you said what I was
thinking)
Wayne ;)
