BUT the fans make an awfull loud (really loud) noise.
it woud just be impossible to make music near that machine. angry.gif


Quite normal, it's for old timers rock'n roll, it's written in the ads (Rack'n ROLL wink.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

In heavy metal, nobody hear you scream wink.gif

BTW I still don't konw if it works with OS9.


Maybe, buit the most important feature needs X, the cluster!

Here is my dream machine if used for music... biggrin.gif

(right picture)


I don't know where to put it, it won't pass thru the door room BUT I DON't CARE I WANT ONE blink.gif blink.gif blink.gif laugh.gif

BTW, the screen is soooooooo tiny you can't see it wink.gif

more seriously, the noise issue can maybe be cured (different speed modulate fan, plenty of air around it…) but the cluster thing doesn't need to be where you work behind you Neumann (ooops I've said the N word wink.gif

[BTW Steve, change my basket from 10 G5 2 AGP 6 PCI to 10 2G5 Xserve that'll do wink.gif]
