Anyone want 9500 that's got "issues"?
Sure, I'll take it if you're donating. I live in Modesto, so it's only an hour and a half drive to SF... Can use it as a server next year at college.

And try holding X down on booting until it chimes twice. That should boot it into X if it's possible to do so.

Ah, Microsoft... I would have liked that computer (not that I need it).

I know this is a little late, but for those who might be interested in the answer to solving this problem (if it ever comes up again and they hit this thread)...

The problem is that the 9500 and older machines like my own 8600 cannot use the Startup Disk panel to boot into X. It has to be done using Sonnet's utility or XPostFacto (Unsupported Utility X at the time this question was posted).

Hopefully someone else in the future finds this useful.
