Wouldn't an 8500 mobo work as well? I believe they're very similar to the
72/75/7600. I ask because I have an 8500 with a dead power supply that I've
stripped of RAM, processor and hard drive. I also have an 8600 case with a
dead mobo and all drives removed (except floppy). Seems like it would make a
nice project with the addition of a G3 upgrade.
