Cantrell Your point is??? I see what you are saying and the answer is the 6300 is not an "Old World Mac" and can not at this time nor likely ever run OSX.
"Old World Macs" are Apple 7300,7500,7600,8500,8600,9500,9600 UMAX S900 /J700 PowerComputing Power Tower Pro and perhaps a couple of other models The Apple Beige G3 is closer to an Old World Mac then a new world Mac of which the iMac was the first of. The Apple Beige G3 also has an IDE bus and is the first machine to have one built in that runs OSX. A few other machines like the Apple 6400 & 6500 and UMAX C500/600 have ide buses and OSX may run on them in the future it is being worked on and they are not really OLD world macs either.
