Most pimped out powermac 7500 ever?

I thought the whole point of a Mac was to not be a nerd?

Needless to say, your spec does slightly arouse me.

I saw one PM 7500 with zif carrier and Powerlogix G3/900 mhz, with Radeon card and 512 (?)MB ram

I've got a 6100 @247mhz G3, Apple 2MB av card and 4 GB scsi.

I did exactly the same thing, I also framed 8 8MB RAM boards.

I plan to make a deep frame to put one of my Acorn Electrons in.

A cousin of mine actually made earrings of an old RAM chip... not from a 7500, though, but a PC...

That has to be a misunderstanding... it's quite all rigth to have seriously nerdish tendencies, even as a Mac user... in many ways it actually helps... 😀

That's almost identical to the 6150 I have..How much ram is in there? What OS?

Running os 8.6 and lowly 72mb ram.. could have used $80 to get 136mb, but its not worth it.

I bought my 256 on ebay for 15 dollars. It's sort of overkill at the moment, but.. . it was too good of a deal to pass up.

For a while, I had a 7500 w/ a Newertech G4 500 and 1 gig of ram, Rage 128, ATA/Firewire/USB card w/ 160 Gig ATAHD, and Gigabit ethernet. This was my main computer for 3 years. It ran os X.2.8 wonderfully, and if the minimac had not come along I would still be using it.
