Cool. Thanks Adam. I will definitely check out your store. On another note, is there a 3rd party hardware (PCI card) for wireless internet etc for the PowerMac 8500 ??

Yes, the PowerMac 8500 can handle any of these Nitro processor cards. You may need to remove your L2 cache card, as some of the 8500/120 components weren't qualified to run at the higher motherboard speeds.

Unfortunately, my dual MP cards have both sold at this point. However, I do have a 233Mhz card (as well as a set of 200s, 180s, etc) available in my eBay store.

Hope this helps.

Hi all,
I have an old Power Mac 8500 running 120 speed. Can this MP card that you guys are talking about work on the machine? & will it be faster/

The advantage would be in getting around the problem of FINDING one of the 'second' processors.

I have since seen use charts for the MP card that indicate that it is indeed usable in an S900

Thanks all

Hi Gene:

Probably not as the S900 has its own propriety dual cpu slot. Still would be a nice experiment to try though. If it did work though, would be be any
advantage to 2 cpu's on one card, versus 1 cpu on each card.
