Mac Zealot, all this erratic behaviour really sounds like overheating, but I doubt it - if it was heat, I guess the machine should have been working again this morning after it was off for the night,...

Well, it's crashing again... This time I had an mp3 playing in the background. The picture went black first, and about 15-20 seconds later the sound got stuck in a loop, so I guess the whole system...

Here's the differences I can remember:

- The 750 (G3) was the successor of the 603e, so it only supported MEI cache coherency. G4 added support for MERSI, which made multiprocessing much more...
