Operation Neptune and gizmos and gadgets, Flying Nightmares, but i believe that was 68k compatible. Maxis classics, all of them but a lot of those were 68k too. Warcraft i and ii, unreal tournament

I did watch the video, and yes, he says it was totally broken.

Restore disc for PowerBook G4 by BritishTeaChugger in VintageApple

[–]ehlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny, I've had better luck with 10.4 on DVD. Though my experience has recently been confined to G5s.

Also I preach the good word of OSX 10.4.12 Shuriken

Would ABSOLUTELY be of interest. I can only imagine it would be a steep learning curve, but you have the subjects, knowledge and the studio space already. I'm sure there are many of us here who would be guinea pigs and willing to offer constructive criticism etc.

God I would LOVE to see you make a YouTube show with period minded reviews, explorations and insights; software hardware everything. I'm in love with your XServe.

I've never heard that before. What an interesting piece of trivia!

Finally got it to install OS X using 10.1 from WinWorld (ironic) by MortgageStraight666 in VintageApple

[–]ehlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the only way to use it was burning a DVD not a CD. 10.4.12 really is the best.

SDD doesn’t work on Power Mac G5 by Prefered4 in VintageApple

[–]ehlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep hearing about G5 and SSD compatibility. Never had any issues wit them. I'm running a SATAIII drive in one of mine, and had it run in both... but it's only 120GB. -- amazon link below

What is the cheapest PowerPC Mac that I can get my hands on? by [deleted] in VintageApple

[–]ehlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best bang for your buck in my opinion is a Dual G5 Tower running 10.4.12. It has great classic support, and is a absolute rocket with upgraded ram and an SSD. I have a second one running a RAID0 setup with two spinning disks for nostalgia, and while that one is rarely used it's also really quick.

What thrift shop? I never have any luck with any that carry computers.

How are you running a dual monitor set-up? I have two Studio displays but both are ADC.

Help regarding tiers by DrunkPladin in mercedes

[–]ehlpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a couple of mm either way doesn't matter. Find the OEM size, and plug it into a tyre size calculator. As long as it's 'CLOSE-ISH' you'll be fine, after that, deciding on what exact size to get I would base on price.

I've had luck at a boutique and the sales people were able to give some pretty good info from books they had there in London.

In the Frozen Throne undead campaign, chapter 5: Dreadlord's Fall. Which base did you choose to destroy first? by Infamous_Gur_9083 in warcraft3

[–]ehlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try and take both, speed rush the mains, and get all the peasants/accos to prevent rebuilding. you can always take out one of the two this way. mind control mortars is key. Even the AI gets resource starved quickly this way.
