Re: Best browser Power Mac G-4 OS 10.5.8?
I agree that flash player should be up to date. Unfortunately plenty of gamed my kids play online require it. It's a double edged sword. Its really sad that apple decided to stop maintaining the PowerPC platform. The Open-source community and BSD communities are proof its not impossible to port things over to this platform still... If only chrome worked on PPC platforms because it keeps its own version of flash player up to date with its browser.

I would be curious to see speed comparisons with TenFourFox and a few other browsers still supported on 10.5.8. Do any of these support HTML I wonder? TenFourFox comes in at least two versions, one of which is for 7400 processors, and another which are for the later 7450 processors. Based upon recommendations of security folks, I have removed Flash from my machines. -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Thanks. I checked out this link: https://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/wiki/WhichVersion Mira On Saturday, July 18, 2015, peterh...@cruzio.com wrote: I still am using a Power Mac G-4 1.25 dual using OS 10.5.8 on a daily basis for some work using the internet.

There are different versions for different processor chips, so you have to invoke TERMINAL and use the MACHINE function to discover if you have a plain vanilla G4 (7400, I believe) or an updated G4 (7450, I believe).

Alas, the default for this device, is Master so a mini jumper (shunt), as from a 2.5 hard drive, must be used to select Slave for the second hard drive. -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Best browser Power Mac G-4 OS 10.5.8?
I still am using a Power Mac G-4 1.25 dual using OS 10.5.8 on a daily basis for some work using the internet. I can no longer upgrade Safari, Firefox or Chrome. Is there another browser that may interface better with the internet, or do I need to consider this computer near the end of it's life (in terms of the internet)? I do have newer computers (an iMac 2009, and an ipad), but I am reluctant to give up on this old warhorse! Any ideas? -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
