Try Lugaru (http://www.wolfire.com/lugaru.html). It says it needs a 400Mhz G3 but it runs fine on my PM G3 (a 350Mhz machine) and it's playable (though not at the best resolution!) on my sister's 233Mhz Rev.A iMac with less ram than yours. Oh, and it kicks ass!

Your Audiophile will work with that G5 (so long as it's a single processor model, if it's a dual processor there may be complications - check out the PCI compatability link at http://m-audio.com/products/en_us/Audiophile2496-main.html). It should work in the single processor model's standard PCI...

If it's a G4 Powerbook or a white iBook (simple test: it'll be either silver/grey and made of metal or shiny white plastic if it is) then, as far as i'm aware, it should have a mic built in. Many other earlier Apple notebooks also have built in mics as well. Just set up your input level in the...

And yes the piggybacking method should work, just hook it up to the CD drive's IDE cable - jumper settings shouldn't be a problem as the eMac has two individual IDE channels (one for the optical drive and one for the HD). Take a look at...

Chazam - Note the Lt. Major Burns' prices are the education prices. Consumer prices are shown below.

Xarcom - Good point but remember the 'Office 2004' P2P script that deleted home folders? People's patterns of computer use has as much a part to play in that sort of thing. But yeah you're right the permissions setup does help to minimise damage to a great extent.

I was just about to mention that. Also, what's the PDA-like thing to the right of the iMac?

Well personally I think it's a bit of both. Low visibility will obviously make Apple less of a target than Windows machines - there are more Windows machines therefore there are more users to exploit therfore there is a bigger market to exploit therefore that's where the attacks will target...

Eh, what does Numlock actually do? I'm hazily aware of it doing something back in the fog that was my Windows years (ie. to use the bloody numbers you had to put it on, otherwise it was a rather pointless set of cursor control keys and, if you had it turned on, a mouse on your keyboard -...

OS X + USB to Serial Adapter = Chaos. OS X was never built to support technology like serial which, let's face it, is crap for everything except hooking up an old PDA. For this very reason (ie. it's very hard to get OS X to properly work with a serial port) Belkin have no plans to port their...

Jonathan Ive = God.

I agree with you fully there but I looked into this quite deeply before getting a drive for my music recording and the differences between FW400 and ATA drives of the same calibre are negligible in performance terms. Pretty much nothing pushes your average HD harder than multi track audio...

The issue isn't the speed of the bus. Undoubtedly an ATA 133 bus is faster than firewire. But that doesn't mean that the drives are any faster. At present most decent drives top out at around 35-40Mbp per second so whether it's ATA or firewire, the speed of the drive is the determining factor...

Well here's my main machine (an eMac) that's been hacked to run at 1600x1200 rather than the stock 1280x960.

A great site. From the same people who brought you www.dellrumors.com

I've heard of Mac Minis going into cars before but this guy has done a really good job. Dig the iPod dock and handbrake mounted firewire ports! http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10895_7-6218002-1.html?tag=smgif

On a related side note: I had one of the early Rev A eMacs with the notorious display issues. Mine broke within about 4 weeks of taking it home. Took it into Scotsys in Glasgow where I was given, sorry posted the next day a full copy of Jaguar (which I just missed the cut off date for a free...

Much faster than firewire? In most cases FW400 is more than fast enough to cope with the max transfer rate of any HD. The guy's already got a FW HD so it's no great drama to use that over an internal HD. Why make life complicated? All this talk of Sony Viaos is making me shudder! Edit...

1) Your drive will almost certainly fail catastrophically at some point so back up your data NOW!!!! 2) Depending on whether or not your PowerMac has an AGP slot you may be able to boot via firewire (if it has an AGP slot you're in luck, if it hasn't then you're not). It should be fine to use...
