If you really wanted to experiment, you might take a look at the OrangeMicro OrangePC PCI cards. There is on currently on ebay and they show there up regularly. They were a self contained unit, with processor, RAM slots, video, etc, that allowed to to run Windows 95, NT or 98 on a Mac. I still have one in my 9600 running Windows 98. The last "known" machine they worked in was the G3B&W units. I suppose you could figure out how to swap the processor and bios. However, I don't know what you would do about getting it to boot in OS 9. The Orange cards came with special software that allowed you to configure the card, install software, and ultimately boot into it. The remains of the OrangeMicro support page is here <http:// web.archive.org/web/20010602083110/www.orangemicro.com/support.html> where you will find some of the software, manuals, etc. Nancy --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
