There used to be a shareware program called Wish I Was.. That would allow you to temporary change the Gestalt ID. That�s the mac identfier for whichever machine. If you can change the ID to some form of iMac with the software, then you should be able to install it. The problem I ran into was actually finding the software. Any one know where it can be found on the WWW? J. BLANTON -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
