You can download 9.1 now from the Apple site and boot from that to
install the OS. G3s are still great, even with OS X (need lots of
ram), especially since all the IDE stuff will work in them and OS X
integrates well with a windows network. Give me a shout if you need
any help with the G3 (original poster was Chris I think)
Oh *no*!
The original thread is still running, about 3 messages down from this
one, but already this *FALSE INFORMATION* is being promulgated around?
You can indeed download 9.1, as you have been able to since the day it
was released, but it is an *PATCH ONLY*. It is NOT a complete bootable
OS in its own right. You need a copy of MacOS 9.0 to upgrade.
Please don't spread the info that 9.x is now free around any further -
it is *not true.*

Somebody just gave me my first G3. Very good
looking machine.
Even has that prominent DEC chip (21154 PCI) to look at. Can't wait
to load something on it.
Which model? I can check to see if I have the Apple restore CD for it.
