[QUOTE="gord22, post: 959056, member: 133692"] A lady on craigslist here in Manhattan gave me a free eMac (1ghz, 700mb RAM). She told me the screen would blink. So I made the treacherous trip (it's way heavier than I expected) through the subway system home. I figured I would use the ram for my old iMac G3 I turned into a jukebox. I look inside to see EVERYTHING (fans, holes, connections) covered in thick black dust. I buy a can of air, spray it out and also made the power button sturdier and bam....runs like a champ. So my question to you gurus out there is what kind of things can I do with it. I got a 512 MB chip of PC133 on the way to max it it. Are there any program that can run on this (I got 10.4.11) to give it a boost? A fan control app? Anything? I am still in the dark about pre intel macs, but I love them for some reason. Any info on currently supported apps for performance, diagnostics(check to see if this thing is in good shape), adjustments would be appreciated! [/QUOTE]
