After I swapped the top and bottom chips, my Max went from reading 128MB to 160MB. If you know why, go ahead and explain. But, really, I don't care. It works. I thank the people on this list who gave productive advice. > At the time the machines were marketed, the default RAM was plenty > (consider the original iMacs only came with 32 MB RAM). That's your example? There was no end to the bitching and moaning about that. Anyway, what's your point? The Starmax had two additional slots for upgrading. They didn't put the preinstalled chip in the slot it would end up in if someone wanted to max it out. Pretty silly. And not done in the interest of the customer. > I still maintain it is a goofy idea to run OS X on a StarMax. Well, maybe I want to do it just for the fun of it. What's it to you? > Anyone on this list running OS X successfully, productively? I'm sure some of the people on this list need their StarMaxes for productivity. But there are some on this list who have productivity machines, and have fun with their Maxes. And even those people, can get productivity with an extra machine being a server, jukebox, etc... So, has anyone painted their case? Any of those people have photo to share? Anyone doing fun stuff with their Starmax? Please share.
