re: #229 retired cynic

I lived on one for many years, with pretty heavy duty tasks for the time. Graphics.

That’s what the owner of this one was doing (Adobe suite, Macromedia suite, etc) but it looks like it stopped being used around 2007. OTOH, getting 5 years out of a high end PC is near impossible AND this thing still runs as good as it did then.

I’m actually thinking of running MacOS X 10.4.11 so I can do classic - I have a nice pile of good 68k software still and it could be fun to see what runs in OS 9. Dropping in the other gig of memory it can handle will speed it up considerably as well. One thing that has been true of every Unix since the first PDP: it needs more memory :D
