Hey I have a Mac quadra800 on the east coast if someone
wants to take it away. It is a discard system still booting up
nicely with a log-in lock on the disk.
Either help me get it running (reinit disk?)
or you can just have it.
John,
Nice Q800 find! Is someone have claimed it yet?
I would like it for shipping if you wish to let it go. Yes, you can
reinit the HD w/ downloadable HD SC formatter 7.3.5 on a bootable
disk. It comes on a 1.44MB image, you can use rawrite (from linux
sites download areas.)
OS 7.5.3 and updater to update that to 7.5.5 is free to download but
requires a way (bit tedious and somewhat hard way) to get them onto
Mac if you only have a PC. About 19 images plus 3 images. Whew.
Cheers,
Wizard
