This page should answer your questions: http://www.everymac.com/systems/motorola/starmax5000/starmax5000_275.html You could probably put a Sonnet card in there and upgrade to G3/400. Even if not, it can run Os 8.1 just nicely as they are 603e processors sorta like what's in a 6400/6500. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
