You have a so-called 'BlueWhite' G3 Mac; you can install 10.4 on it
but if you cannot read the disk, you may have the CDRW-only optical
drive,
Try looking on the back, below the power plugs. There should be a
sticker that has two barcodes and says something like
400MHZ/1MB CACHE/64MB SDRAM/6GB HD/DVD-ROM/KB

Ok, your mac can go up to 10.4, but you'll need a retail disk (not an
specific machine disk)
you can put any standard IDE DVD ROM in your Power Mac( mine has a LG

Card to connect to wifi networks, the other option is buy

Robert,
The BW is a nice machine... I have two of them.
Lessee... You can max out the ram to 1 GB (4 x 256 MB)
There are some processor options. You can go to an Apple 450 MHz G3. You can
install a 450 MHz G4 CPU from the first gen. G4 machines... the Yikes/PCI
graphics. (Note: Going to a G4
Why didn't you just reply to Robert? Anyway, is the machine blue on
the front, top and back or is it beige all around?
