Thanks I will download it tomorrow

On an aside note... is your avatar the "Ka-click-a-chu" pokemon ???
Super powers inclusing the X-er and the dock-er ? that is a rare catch

well, I got the beige version from Ker[nal]+che's yahoo briefcase place. it runs... it's a little jumpy on my beige 233, but I'm thinkin' that if it were to truly call on my Radeon PCI, it would do a little better. Dinosaur plays smoother in the OSX DVD player than it does in the OS9 version, but "Where the Heart Is" is glitches at an ugly rate in OSX and plays perfectly in OS9... quite a kanundrum. eh?

well, moo for now!

cool.

Hehe...

Thats the setup I have too...

Beige G3 233
512MB RAM
80GB HD
Mac OS 9.2.2, OS X 10.1, and Mandrake Linux 8.0
Toshiba 16X DVD-ROM
Yamaha 16x10x40 CDRW
Sony Spressa USB 4x4x6 CDRW
Radeon PCI
Wired 4DVD Decoder
USB Card

Ive upgraded everything except the processor..

I need to put a Revision B or C ROM chip in there so I can use everything at once on the IDE busses..

Does anyone know where I can find one??

I'll have to give the DVD player a try though... Just for the heck of it to see if it can be done on an old 233 G3, since the Wired 4DVD decoder doesnt work under OS X......

Oh well.....

Get the processor upgrade. I have an XLR8 500hz G3. (Will work without software in X.) Video on DVD is smooth.
