Not my experience with a Belkin BusPort card in a PowerCenter 150MT.
Worked just fine, zero problems. Use Apple USB Upgrade Card Support 1.2
- I believe you can d/l it from http://www.pure-mac.com/; Apple's new
website is a pain in the a** to find stuff on now. BTW, 8.6 runs pretty
well on my 7200/90 - very little speed difference compared to 8.1....
