Faster G3 down the road? I wouldn't hold my breath. The only way there'll ever be a faster G3 for pci powermacs is if Motorola or IBM fab a G3 with > 10X multiplier (or a G4 with > 9X multiplier). Without higher multipliers, pci powermacs are maxed at 500MHz G3s and 450MHz G4s (unless you want to resort to overclocking your system bus). I'm afraid that since they haven't produced any chips with higher multipliers by now, they probably never will. :-( -Jeff [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- "You can't brew a premium lager with a kool-aid mentality." --Harold Green in _The_Red_Green_Show_ -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
