Nextstep 3.3 will run nicely on all SS5's except
the 170mhz version It
barfs on the Fujitsu chip in the 170.
Really? I thought it was only NeXT and Intel support! Mind, I've got a
NeXT Slab to run NS3.3 on (coming next week I hope!) so I need to stick to
solaris for this I think.
The SS5 uses a JDEC 5v SIMM similar to Tsunami based
Mac's. I seem to
recall that 5v FPM Mac SIMMs will work in a SS5
That's not a G3 then? I've got one full of memory I can, er, 'borrow' :)
I'm in the US but I bought a whole box of 50
brackets for $20. I could
send you one.
If I don't decide to just get a complete machine off ebay I'll take you up
on that!
If it's a 170mhz version it's likely to be in
an Aurora2 chassis that
uses a standard form factor SCSI CD-ROM. Still with the 512 byte
requirement
Nope, definitely a skinny one.
Cheers!
