Would it do any good to put panther on my beige desktop? (It's got Jaguar right now) It has a Sonnet G3 500 on it, 768mB, a Sonnet IDE card, and a USB card. The guy at the Mac Store said Panther won't go on any machine that doesn't have built-in USB. Is this true? And... if it's true, is there anyone yet who makes a pre-install program that will go around that limitation, just like the people who make programs that you can use to make Old World Macs run Jaguar? >> Lou, Apple supports up to 10.2.8 on Beige G3. From what I have read there are people who have had trouble with this & dropped back to 10.2.6. XpostFacto will allow you install 10.3.x on Beige G3. Here's link: <http://eshop.macsales.com/OSXCenter/XPostFacto/> Others may have experience with 10.3 on Beige G3 so I'll let them address pro-con.
