I'm running a Sawtooth as my main machine. It's a little far from its stock configuration. I increased the RAM by cannibalizing some defunct peecees. Currently at 4 X 256 PC-133 - 1 GB. The CPU is a Powerlogix G4/1.6 GHz obtained from OWC. Internal hard drives (80 & 60 GB) are off the shelf units from Staples, Office Depot, Radio Shack, etc... DVD burner I got from a local computer repair shop. (Have to be careful... Not all optical drives will boot a Mac.) A USB 2.0 PCI card obtained from a local repair shop. (IOGear was the brand name) Until I bought Leopard (Which runs great!), I got my OS discs from eBay. I'm guessing you are in Oz and may not have access to some of the retail stores I mentioned, but I hope this gives you an idea of places to get toys for your "toy"! ;-) Amanda --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ 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.
