Your 6500 CAN run OSX using this utility: http://eshop.macsales.com/OSXCenter/XPostFacto/ Its really easy to use and I had no problems installing OSX on my 7600/200 (without a G3 upgrade!). The only thing I couldn't get to work was my firewire card as apparently its unsupported under OSX even though it works fine under OS9.1. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
