Quicksilver Mac

and needs to get the old Mac off their hands, I'd be HAPPY to take it! ...

Leopard gave us such a better Finder it isn't even funny. Have you ever tried LaunchBar or QuickSilver ? ...

I believe you should be fine if the Quicksilver G4 supports 4x AGP (which I think it does). http://www.lowendmac.com/ppc/quicksilver-2002-power-mac.html Be aware though that sometimes the cards on the G5 Power Macs come in an AGP-Pro configuration and will only work for those AGP-Pro slots on the G5. http://www.ertyu.org/steven_nikkel/agpcompatibility.html

My machine model is Apple PowerMac G4 QuickSilver 2002 800MHz, I would like to upgrade my video card, will Mac ATi Radeon 9800 PRO 256Mb G4 4x / G5 AGP Video Card fits it or not?

Yours is the model known as 'Quicksilver'. Some later ones were sold with logic boards that could use larger hard drives. Yours is apparently an early one.

BUT, the iPod is nowhere to be found (when I connect the...

When I push the start button on the front of the machine, the button illuminates then fades, but the computer doesn't start, but after a time of doing this it eventually fires up. Is it just a coincidence that this happened after a power cut even thought the computer was shut down at the time?

We are having a permissions issue with files transferred between our Intel and PowerPC Macs in our design department. Specifically we have two PowerPC machines - one a G4 (Quicksilver) and one a G5 (Dual 2.3ghz) - and two Intel machines - both dual core Intel Xeon. All four machines are running system 10.4.11. An important note and possibly the problem creator is that all...

Hi y'all, my first post. I'm running a PowerPC G4 Quicksilver Dual 1.25Ghz with 2GB RAM and OSX 10.4.11. I've purchased a Leopard upgrade and the message I get right at the beginning is that it cannot find Mac OSX 10. ...
