Didn't all the Quicksilvers have the same PS? Or is it that they're compatible with each other, but higher-end ones had a more durable one? I'm working on a 733 QS that just started showing some problems that could well be related to the PS. On Dec 2, 12:29 pm, Christopher Icha

I would get a QS 2002 it won't have the 128GB hard drive limit on it. It's a lot less hassle because otherwise you have to buy this special driver to get hard drives over 128GB to work. On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 11:23 PM, Tom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have a G4 733 Digital Audio that I was

AVOID 733 QS LIKE THE PLAGUE! There is a known power supply issue. The machines start shutting themselves down after a while. Sooner or later, you'll end up with a very expensive paperweight. :0( On Dec 02, 2008, at 06:24 pm, Len Gerstel wrote: On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 11:23 PM, Tom [EMAIL

I have a G4 733 Digital Audio that I was setting up to give to a relative to use with Photoshop. He's into digital photography, and this 733 ran Photoshop 9 just fine, and I was also giving him iLife for iMovie and iPhoto and such. I put two 250-gig hard drives in it and maxed out the memory at
