Re: Next question (Please don't laugh)

[michael S. Macdonald]

There are no compelling reason for trying to run OSX on a nubus era 
machine. Many of the high great end cards such as the Radius Thunder 
IIGX weren't even supported past OS8.

G3 upgrades are a good value these days, and any G3 card made for the 
7100/8100 Macs will work in the processor direct slot of the Power120.

IIRC, even the pocket battleship PowerCenterPro's aren't suitable for 
G4 upgrades

It *will not* work on a NuBus architecture machine. The docs say as much.

 The answer is YES, but you will probably need to use XPostFacto to get
 it up and running. It is a free download.
 A DVD ROM should also be installed for installing off the OS X disks.

Interesting!  I kind of figured XPostFacto might be in the works, but
it does say it works on Legacy only (7300 configuration machines). 
IIRC, the 120 is based on the 6100 case mechanics.

Anyone else like to chime in here with their opinions?
