    Resolved Assistance on if Sierra is compatible with these requirements.

    I'm currently debating on whether to download an old game with mixed reviews when running on iOS.

    Resolved G5 PCI-X (or PCI) compatibility with the Sun ASY-90145 1394/USB2.0 card?

    So there are a mess of used, PCI combo FW1394a/USB2.0 cards being sold all over which were for Sun servers (I'm guessing SPARC) during the early/mid-’00s — the ASY-90145 (375-3140-05).
