[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 223946, member: 5184"] Pioneer's DVR drives are generally a good choice, and mostly are supported as Superdrive out of the box. If not, you can easily make them supported by using Patchburn. Also, before throwing in the PC-100 memory, you need to make sure which model of PowerMac you have, as some of the later had a 133MHz bus, and won't boot with PC-100 memory. Check on [url]www.lowendmac.com[/url] they have a complete listing of every Mac that ever existed, with full specs. [/QUOTE]
