One of those certainly would be useful for the music and sound synthesis
software that won't run on my fastest, older, Power Mac, although the
machine would be more enjoyable if it resembled a PDP-11/45, was built
mostly from TTL ICs and came with schematics, firmware sources and OS
sources. If I ever acquire one of those Power Mac G5s, I'll probably
apply a hacksaw to the handles on the top of the case so that it will be
a stackable machine upon which other equipment, books, papers, tools,
etc. can be stacked while it's in use. :-)
If it were built from TTL IC's, would it still be a microcomputer?
Peace... Sridhar
It does worry me that there's not a single
microcomputer system made
today that I actually want to own....
There is one microcomputer I would love to have. The Power Mac G5.
