While my G3 card was being replaced, I put the 180mhz card back into 
my 8500 to use with system 9.1. I didn't expect it to work in OSX, 
but by accident I booted into OSX and it worked. Very very slow. I 
wouldn't recommend it. The software you develop probably would not 
perform realistically.

G3 cards are pretty cheap these days. Get the fastest one you can.
