| Where to get Rhapsody Does anyone have a copy of Rhapsody for PPC I could buy? I can't find Rhapsody anywhere. Also, will it work on a iMac G3 233mhz computer with 32MB RAM? I will also buy Rhapsody for x86 as well.  |

| Rhapsody was never made available for sale unless you were a developer. The result of Rhapsody is Mac OS X which can be bought from Apple whether you're a consumer or developer.  You could always try eBay.

 I'm trying to run the best operating system I can without buying any hardware upgrades. A developers preview would be fine for me (Is that what RacerX uses?). But I can't find anything on Ebay about it. I can't even find Mac OS X Server 1.0 which is basicly Rhapsody. |

| Unless you find such software on eBay, you're out of luck. And even on eBay, I don't think it's entirely legal, since those licenses were never officially sold to the public – but came with an NDA. Whether any such software would run on your iMac: I guess not. At the time, the iMac was the first Mac to sport USB ports, and it clearly wasn't the center of attention for Mac OS X Server. Your 32 MB RAM tell me you want to run Mac OS 8.6.1 or 9.2.2 on that machine.

| Hm, I might have Mac OS X Server 1.2 lying around somewhere idle in a box, I'll have a look. But even for that, you'll want more than 32 MB RAM.

| I might be getting some more memory (another 64MB stick or more). Will that be enough for Rhapsody? |

| I had some early OS X (client) builds on an iBook 300 with 64 MB of RAM. Wasn't much fun, but they _did_ install.

| As a matter of fact, the person you might want to speak to would be RacerX here in the forum. I haven't seen him in a long time on the forum.....wonder what he's up to?
