As the title says, it's an interesting claim (not my post, just found it). How does it stand up?

I think it stands up but you should be aware of a couple limitations of the hacked version of Mac OS 9 as it currently stands:
- Sound only works well through USB audio
- Silent upgrade machines (1.33, 1.5) can have issues under higher resolutions with certain DVI-HDMI connectors and monitor combinations
- The mouse will occasionally freeze during startup

Other than that they're energy efficient, space efficient, and super fast for Mac OS 9, especially when you upgrade to an SSD.
