If they do then I would ditch 7 for 8 and try for the latest version

memories of the rock-solid (compared to 9.x) nature of 8.6.
I'm sure someone on the list must have some circa 500 MB SCSI drives
gathering dust. Except for me of course;)
Has there not been whole older systems being offered as donations
recently, have they all been spoken for?
Good Luck

full to handle OS 8.1

I have already offered 500Mb if they could be used but it doesn't work
out for
an all in one like the Performa 580
