I had a USB "n-nano" from Quickertek. (http://www.quickertek.com/ products/n_nano.php) I used it with my Lombard, and my 350 mhz G3 iMac, with no problem. In fact, we used it as the main internet connection at home for about 6 months (there is a cheap wireless ISP in town) and due to the fact that the iMac was in the best location for reception in the house, that was what we connected it through. If I were to get another, I would look for something with an external antenna connection, so that you can play with cantennas, and DIY omnis... (Though I did manage to boost my gain on this with a pie tin...) --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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.

Take a look on e-bay or other sources for a G4 around the 1GHz mark. It will likely be cheaper than that G3 processor. You'll still have the G3 available, it will be a G4 (important for some stuff), higher memory capacity and the bus will be faster. It will possibly also have large disk support and probably some other advantages I'm forgetting.

G4 PCI Mac
was wondering.. IfI wanted to use wireless on a 350 MHZ PCI runninng 10.3 do I have to use Airport or will a third party vendor acrd work as well. What about the USB type or wireless adapters? I saw a processor upgrade that allows you to put a G3 1000 MHZ processor in place of the G4. Any thoughts? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ 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.
