I think the Rev. A iMacs came with 8.1, the Rev. B iMacs with 8.5. From what I've heard, the USB support in 8.1 was extremely limited: enough to make the keyboard and mouse work and that's about it. If I was the original poster (and had a little money) I'd max out the RAM, VRAM, and pick up an OS 9 CD. If they still have 8.1 they probably still have 32 MB of RAM too - Getting up to 256 MB and OS 9 would be like a whole new computer. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
