I traded my old PC that my G4 replaced for a beige G3 266. I've added a few things to it: Upped the RAM to 160, upgraded the video RAM to 6, added a 10/100 network card, added USB and replaced the old 4 gig hard drive with a 30 gig drive. I have a SCSI scanner attached to it too. A couple of years ago, I bought a CD-R drive for my aging PC and due to some re-configuring of it, I took the CD-R out and it was sitting collecting dust. I should add that this CD-R drive is SCSI and came with a PCI card that went into the PC. Yesterday, I was looking through some of the junk that I'd accumulated from some older Macs and I found an external housing for a CD. Thinking that I had nothing to lose, I popped the CD-R into the drive case and connected the unit as the terminator on the SCSI connected to the scanner. I found the installation CD (had Toast 3.5) and installed it. It works perfectly! I was even able to burn a CD. I'm happy!
