Haha, yep sure can. I just don’t have monitors for them all. Anyone know of a ADC kvm solution?
Love the desk solution. Super stylish

2002 vintage single core 800Mhz Power Macintosh G4 'Quicksilver'. Upgraded with 1.25Gb of RAM, and 2 x 80GB HDD. Works just as well as it did brand new (though has recently had a replacement clock battery), and is in almost perfect cosmetic condition. I still have her boxes in the attic, and the original Apple Pro Mouse is in a drawer somewhere. Still in occasional use for watching the odd DVD, and used as the worlds slowest web browser. Oh, and I occasionally play Sim City 2000 on it, booted into Mac OS 9.2. She is running Mac OS X 10.4.11 as her main OS, and still happy connects to the internet using a Wifi PCI card.
Hi Dilli,
In Tiger use TenFourFox or Interweb, install Greasemonkey add-on, then Sebaro's Viewtube script - this makes Youtube playback more managable either in browser or passing it to a media player.
Leopard will run on any G4. You just need to work around the 867 MHz CPU check.
Thanks. I have TTF but it is good for normal browsing few pages , not everything opens. I can't watch YouTube. I tried tenfive tube but it is for leopard. For Tiger 10 4 11 there is very limited choice. Sorry to be off topic here. Tks again for your link.
I appreciate. Will try the adding and the scripts.
My powerbook has 1.33ghz cpu. What would be the process to get around the processor check
None.
1.33 GHz is higher than 867 MHz. Leopard will install and run.
Ah yes, sorry… 10.4.11 is the last one with the Classic Environment…
You meant: 10.2.8 is the last one with a good Classic environment.

This is the archive I have on file - follow the instruction.
I never knew about this program! Thank you for sharing. In fact, I went to the website that distributes Newsstand and they have a way to get it working under an M1 Mac using SheepSaver with OS9 which is pre-made for this. I got it working with my modern Intel Macbook Air right now under SheepSaver to read the news, so probably works under Rosetta 2 on a M1 mac. Thanks for the post!!
Still looks good. Thanks for posting, even if this turns out not to be forum for the pre-PPC Macs.
You’re welcome! It’s replaced TenFourFox as my go to app on PowerPC.
I installed leopard over tiger but ran into spotlight loop issue . So I had to re install and go back into Tiger.
Unless you actually use Spotlight, you can kill it dead. Just a few terminal commands (or using Onyx). A lot of people use Spotlight as an app launcher, but I've found Quicksilver to be better and it still work on the Catalina Mac I am typing this on.
It did not work inspite of following the instructions.
