All- Just thought I would drop a note to say that Ryan Rempel's "Unsupported Utility X" is the coolest thing to hit my computer in a long time. I have a 9600/350 (MachV) at home (17GB HDD, 304MB RAM), and I've been wanting a machine to install X on. I didn't really want to use an upgrade processor, they just seem so expensive, and I kind of like my processor, seeing as how it's the last of a generation and all. This weekend I decided to see how it would run....
Anyway, with just a few extra mouse clicks (like 3) I was off and running installing OS X. After the install, it immediately ran fine with no tweaking. After I upgraded to X.1, it runs even better. I really couldn't be happier, running an OS so modern, with such a heavy GUI on a machine that has already passed it's fourth birthday (okay, with lots and lots more RAM). 'Props' to Apple, for making such a rocking machine and OS (supported or not, it runs great); Ryan Rempel, for making the utility that made it happen; to the PCI Powermacs list, for keeping me in touch with things like this (I'd have never heard of this Utility otherwise, I'm sure) and as always to Dan Knight/LEM for hosting the list.
