I added a controller card so I can connect an additional drive. Took the 16MB video RAM from my dead G3 Blue & White, installed that, USB, DSL, G3 500Mhz CPU upgrade.
I also use 8.6 and 9.1. I was reading a post somewhere that it might be possible to connect DVD to the older PowerMacs? That would be cool. I like my older PM 7300/500 (G3) because I can still use all my old SCSI devices, and also USB.
