When you print something, the system reads the file and sends the DATA to
the printer... regardless of the original file format it was saved in.

You're right. I was

Theres no real difference between the storage cap of a XServe, a Mac
Pro, or a Mac Mini with some external hard drives via USB.

Excellent! Thanks for the info!
So, let's assume I want to just use an Xserve without the RAID for
now. I can probably stand the noise (I prefer noise to deafening
silence), and weren't there fans that could be put in place of a drive
caddy?
Could I easily set up a WebDAV server on one of these?

As an old IT guy let me tell you that that doesn't work in the long run.
Seriously. We were stuck in a small office 3 of us and between 4-15 servers and
two large SCSI RAID

I'm not sure, but I have used a PCI video card with a beige G3, with

Hi, Kris.
I have a PowerMac G4 DA (OSX 10.4.11 and MacOS 9.2.2), and a LaserWriter

When I switched from the Beige G3 to the G4 DA, I wanted to keep this fine

Since when I got the G4 I was still using mostly OS9, I didn't care much
about printing in OSX (10.3.9 at the time).
Hi Austin
I'm using an XServe G5 2·0 GHz single processor as a desktop machine,
running Leopard client. (It came with 10.3 server but I wanted Leopard
for TimeMachine and didn't need server capabilities. To be honest I
just wanted the coolness of having my own XServe/shiny Apple joy,
Thanks, that helps a lot. I actually compute most of the time with a

time. His hobby? Building

Alternatively you can hold down command-V whilst booting to get the
verbose start up
and watch carefully for things mentioning the card.
Thank you, Bruce. I will investigate these avenues this evening and
report back.

Did you ever print in 10.4.11 on the old Beige, or with it printing in
OS 9 only also?
