Re: [MBZ] New to me eMac
Spent time at RE-PC discussing why my powerbook G3 will not upgrade to OS X with some guy who is running stuff on old Iici and cx. Upgraded to a 8100 with dual drives so he can boot into OS 7.6.1 for some software he has had forever, and the other drive is OS 9.1. Nice day to go shopping in Gump, so hit Goodwill and got a PB 5300 with messed up screen for pennies. Runs fine, just need to find a screen. Might load it into Gump to let the back seat people surf the web at speed. On Jan 28, 2007, at 3:59 PM, Sunil Hari wrote: what can vista do that XP or win2k can't?

You must have at least 128 MB to load OX 10 on a G3 powerbook (except the Kanga, you may not get that one to go at all). 10.3.x requires 256, and won't install otherwise, I've tried.
