I believe Beige G3s use ATX PSs. No modification needed I believe. 100
percent compatible, I believe. I ill give a definite anser later on since I have
a Beige and an ATX PS. Maybe someone else could confirm this, but Im prety
sure any standard ATX PS is usable. I got a 350 watt from best buy for around
$35.
Yes, a beige MT can use a regular atx power supply unmodified. The only concern, iirc, is the length of the power cable. Otherwise, it is an almost straight swap. Also, iirc, Apple used a different size screw than the atx supplies use to hold in the supply, so make sure the supply comes with screws.
