A friend of mine that seems to be very good at getting every bit of life out of his B&W G3 asked me an interesting question.
If he get his hands on a G4 mother board (he has an odd ability to get computers and parts) can he with moding the mounting screws be able to have a G4? I know the hard drives and the CD drive wont be a problem, The things I don't know about though are the power supply and the video card. He has an amazing ability to make stuff work: He over clocked the processer for 350 to 500 and mounted an extra cooling fan under the CD drive to help with cooling. he bought an internal CD R/W from me and ran power and data cables out of an extra PCI slot. So I have no worries that he will mess any thing up. I just don't know about the Power and Video. Fireware shouldn't be a problem since only the case will be G3 -------------------- BING BING BLEEP ERRRRRRR[I]
