The 6500 which has the SCSI CD booting issue. Well that is a different motherboard then the 6400 which the C500/600 is based on. The work around for the SCSI CD booting issue is to transfer the OSX CD to a hard drive partition but that isn't an issue with the 6400/C500/600 as far as I know. The issue with the 6400 is a video issue and I'm not real clear on exactly what the problem is. It could be like the Apple machines with on board video. They wouldn't work with a video card in a slot but did with the on board video. That issue has been fixed on the 7300,7500 and 7600 machines. I know Ryan would be happy to have some one with a C500/600 send him reports so he can see about fixing things. Let me know how it goes. I still haven't set my trusty old C500 up to give it a try.(I have a C600 new in the box never turned on!) Will S
