You need a carrier card to use ZIF cards in PCI Macs, which replaces the present card in the processor slot. If the seller is truthful and says it plugs right in, it must be on a carrier. If so, $45 is a steal. Otherwise.... I'm using xlr8 carriers in my 9600 and 7500 without trouble. The carrier cards can use ZIF cards with or without jumpers since there are DIP switches (or dials on the oldest) on the carrier to set the bus speed and multiplier. -+-+-+- RPM -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
