i riced the gently caress out of my og imac upgraded the vram on the lovely rear end rage iic to 6mb then i maxxed the memory to what was it 128 or 256mb i dont remember then i got a bigger hard drive then i got a 4x usb cd burner for it that made one good cd every third try then i got the voodoo 2 card for the mezzanine slot that was ONLY on the rev a and maybe b macs (8 meg v2, they didnt offer 16) i think i got an even bigger hard drive around this time but i dont remember too good then i swapped out the daughtercard with a 400mhz upgrade that may even have been a g4 i dont remember but that made the fucker overheat so i duct taped a fan to the top of it like a goodamn idiot but amazingly it worked that that fucker was boss for q3 and unreal tourney i tell you what then i put suse linux on it then i put yellow dog linux on it then i put osx on it then i bought a g4 emac and pieced together a pc and the imac went into a spare bedroom for seven years until i threw it away i probably spent like 1500 bucks upgrading a $1300 computer

My LC did me good after I fried a modem by hot-installing it in an apple IIgs. We were able to sell my Apple IIgs to a retired teacher and her husband. I was dropped off at this house and had to install it. Everything worked fine and she had all these floppies from her school. Nice people. It is unfortunate for them that my mom ripped them off. 6.07 with a card saying I will get System 7 for free, when it comes out. === Which version is better? http://www.virtualapple.org/crystalquestgs.html Or, the Mac version?

pram posted:this doesnt make any sense why? every bit of vertical space is helpful but we have oceans of horizontal space:  plus you can get a hierarchy of tabs everything is already across the top, menu bar, bookmarks bar, address and navigation bars it's like browsing the web in cinemascope
