Hi everyone... I have a Q800 system (7.1, 8MB ram, no CD, 200ish MB HD) that had been collecting dust. Anyway, I came across a 650 and a 8100 and some other stuff that was just going to be thrown out- so I grabbed them. What I was wondering was- could I salvage parts from each of these computers like ram, hd and CD and put it into the 800? I thought the 8100 was an 800 at first until I looked closer, so I don't know if anything is compatible. They all turn on and work, but they have newer OS and it seemed (to me at least) that they ran "slower" than the 800.
I guess my next question is more fundimental... What can I do with my Mac now? This is not meant to piss anyone off. It's just that in the past five years or so, I've been using PC's. I don't really like them, but I "have" to. I've been reading some posts about how slow web surfing is. I remember how much easier it was to use my mac back in the day and I do miss that. I noticed that the 8100 has an "AV" on the case, but I couldn't find any AV type of software on the HD. I think I would like to try and edit some home videos if that's possible for a novice. I guess what I'm saying is that I don't know what the potential of these systems are now, and I'd really like to find a good use for them. thanks in advance, John __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
