Once again this is going off topic but this seems to be the thread for
it. One thing that was impressive with the G4 in it's day compared to
the P4s of the same time was that you could get similar or better
performance from a CPU that used only passive cooling (heatsink). P4s
at the time ran craz
Very true. That comment was intended to only be half serious with a

Not surprising that you have had hardware issues with the Intel Macs.
I have been doing service work on PCs for years and that is pretty

Actually you can roll your own apps for PPC. That's what Linux for

I think with the comparison of the laptop G4s to current intel
offerings is a like comparing apples and oranges but that is a
different story. The point I am looking to make here is the Intel Mac
may be faster then the older PPC offerings but I would like to point
out that a friend of mine works i
a programmer so I could not really
make an informed decision on that one.

Well I appreciate all the advice. I have a lot more to think about

I agree that you may need to check you power supply to make sure it
can handle it, but gaming is not the only instance where hadware
graphic acceleration is helpful. Anything graphics/video intensive

It would most definitely be an improvement unless the 6800 is PCI. lol.
The new card would probably have better and/or more pipelines, pixel

Do you have the Quicksilver and another computer hooked up to a
monitor via a KVM switch? I had this exact same issue under Tiger
with my 933 mhz Quicksilver 2002 when it was hooked it up to my
Blueberry Apple Studio monitor along with a PC via a KVM switch.

I would suggest popping a cleaning CD into the drive. It might help.
I have had similar issues in the past and giving the drive a clean did
the trick even when it did not really seem like it should be the
problem.

Well you are right that AMD does not do PPC CPUs you could not be more
wrong about the switch to Intel being a smart move. They only did it
to boost lagging laptop sales because they were stuck with the G4
because the G5 ran too hot to stick it in a laptop and they were

I can't agree with that. A P4 is the definition of hype verses
performance. My G4 933 mhz Quicksilver is more responsive then a P4
at twice the clock speed and the ram is PC133 on my QS and it is still
the better machine. P4s were not even that great with windows. Plus

IBM deskstars are known for hardware failure and used to be nicknamed

Something that might be worth looking up online is a custom gaming rig
someone build a few years back with a Socket A AMD mobo in a
Quicksilver case. That might give you some ideas on how to get the
power supply to fit. I believe he called it the Poison Apple. Try
googling it.

I tried this. This app and every other one I have tried do not give

I should probably mention that it says on the Software Restore disks
that it is compatible with OS 10.1.2 and OS 9.22. Should that give me

Well the biggest difference off the top of my head will be the RAM.
The Quicksilver uses older PC 133 SDRAM and the MDD uses newer DDR
RAM which also explains the difference in price for the RAM. PC 133
