I still own a G4 sawtooth(AGP GFX) I already upgraded Ram to 1Gb and my HDD to 180Gb , I want it to serve as a Jukebox for my living room
That Is why I want it to be able to run Front row on it (remote controlled via iPhone
BUT , its too slow for 10.5 (I know there is a way around the MhZ limitation.. but it still won't run Frontrow)
I also tried to use a hacked install of Frontrow for tiger, but i soon found out that my Mac can't handle CI & QE (also neccesary for Photobooth which I would like to run with my old Firewire iSight
So since my baby only has 400 Mhz I want to ramp this up to something more speedy (on the cheap of course) and some people sell used CPU's from other G4's like the Dual G4's 1,2 Ghz (from the Mirrored Drive Doors one) or some 900mhz G4 from the quicksilver for really cheap, and since I found upgrade cards from 3rd parties online that had 2x 1.8 Ghz I am guessing that all G4's will fit into my mac? if not which will work?
Then I will also need a new video card, which is the cheapest one that I can get that will run QE&CI ? I only need Frontrow to work
thx
