I gotta get a bigger-than-1.2 gig SCSI HD (anybody got a 2-to-4-gig
3.5" half-height 50-pin narrow SE one for sale?) and more RAM (OSX
"recommends" 128meg minimum, and I've only got 48) before I can do
that... Right now 9.1 is running, but slowly with only 256k L2
cache and 48meg system RAM.
Thinking about a GeForce 2MX video card and a Sonnet PCI IDE card,
so I can just slap a cheap 9gig IDE drive in the box, but that would
run around $200, and the machine isnt even worth that. 8-)
its nearing the line of "would be cheaper to just buy a barebones
blue and white g3".
