What is the best OS X version for a G4 PB 1 GHz? I have an old PB which has OS 10.3.7 and would like to upgrade but do not want to suffer dramatic performance problems/slowdowns. Was thinking Leopard would be nice but not sure. Can anyone suggest the best OS X version for a G4 PowerBook 1 GHz 512MB SDRAM though I am looking into upgrading the SDRAM to at least 2GB.

In order to install Windows 7 via bootcamp, do you have to use the full version of windows or can you use the upgrade disc to install? I figured I should ask before buying another license as I have an upgrade version of Windows 7 Pro that I don't use. I do own previous versions of Windows (all of them....just like I do Mac OS).

after a lot of testing we have managed to clear everything around the topic of flashing stock PC X1900XT/512Mb (256Mb is NOT working!!) with MacPro EFI ROM. Thank you all guys at Strangedogs! It WORKS prefectlly! Ofcourse flashing card with MacPro EFI rom reenders card useless in regular PC, you have to flash it back with original bios to make it work in PC again.

View 24 Replies View RelatedHas anyone tested this scenario? Since PC versions of the 3870 are cheaper than the PC+Mac version, I was wondering if I'd be able to crossfire the PC+Mac version, and a regular PC version. (Obviously I'd only be looking to run Crossfire on the Windows side.) Would this setup cause problems with either the OS X or Windows side? BTW, I've got the 2008 Mac Pro with 2 PCI-E x16 slots.
View 24 Replies View RelatedI just bought my wife a new Al MacBook and need to migrate her Treo 700p from her old Windows machine to the new Mac. I used to use Palm Desktop for Mac and know it is a little quirky and may have some issues with Leopard, so I'm trying to decide whether I should go down that path or just install Fusion and run the windows version in a VM. Anybody have any recommendations either way? She uses Palm Desktop only for syncing, so I don't need to worry about the Leopard iSync issues.

I've been out of the loop for a couple of years and I'm thinking it might be time to consider an upgrade. I am presently using OSX 10.4.11 (Tiger?) on an iMac 4,1. Can anyone advise if the latest version is worth it? I have no idea how many versions there have been between 10.4 and the newest. I have not visited the Apple site to price it nor read the reviews. I have always valued the opinions of you people here.

I also have a 50 dollar gift card from apple. But it seems like if i want to save money, i should use macmall or amazon to save money on tax. What do you think? Since I"ll still have a macbook with large storage sitting at home. I wonder if I'll ever use more than 64GB. But because i'm a video whore, I can do it if I try. I don't want to be shot in the foot because everything is soldered. but at the same time, if I truly never use them...it's just a waste of money.

This isn't about help with the install process, WGA or how to fix anything. It's an opinion thread. Computer involved is a Mac Pro quad 2.66 (2009) with the GT120 (which I'll upgrade to the 4870 in due course) and 6GB RAM. I have a professional disdain for Windows but want to install it, and would like affirmation that I'm picking the right one. This is partly for work use when I'm testing Windows apps we've produced (20%) and gaming via dual boot (80%). I'll mostly be running OSX though.

So now I'm interested in Windows 7 RC. I have an early 2009 iMac with 4gigs of RAM. Is it better to install the 64bit? I won't be doing much on the OS other than some casual gaming (Battlefield Heroes, and Street Fighter 4 when it comes out).

I'm running Safari 5.0.2 on a 15" Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.6. I'm having issues with some sites so wish to try another version of Safari to see if that will help. I downloaded versions 5.0.2 (just for safety if I had to return to it), 5.0.3 and 5.1.1, all of which said they were compatible with Snow Leopard. When I attempt to install 5.0.3 it says it cannot install as it needs OS version 10.6.5 When I attempt to install 5.1.1 it says it cannot install as it needs OS version 10.6.7 Even when I attempt to install 5.0.2 it says it cannot install as it needs OS version 10.6.4 What Gives? Is there a version of Safari out there that will install onto OS 10.6.6? Is there a version of Safari out there that will install onto OS 10.6.6?

I have an 8800 card that I bought for my Wintel box a couple years ago now. In the interim, I've gotten a Macbook and have totally fallen for OSX. As a result, as my Wintel box gets more and more crusty, I've been mulling over replacing it with a Mac Pro (or, preferably, the midrange mac minitower of myth, the i-Chupacabra). Assuming that I did get a Mac Pro, would I be able to cannibalize the 8800 that I have in my Wintel box and use it in the Pro, thus possibly avoiding the outrageous markup found in buying hardware upgrades from Apple? I am concerned that perhaps the 8800 GT offered as an upgrade is somehow physically different than the one that you can buy for the PC...
