I have a Beige G3 466 that is doing this now. I added an Adaptec duoconnect card to it for firewire/usb, it is very sluggish, but runs fine for file storage. You definately do not want to work on...

Moto can sell their G4s to GigaDesigns, Powerlogix, etc.. so those of use with current G4 moto boxes can continue to upgrade. Or we can all buy new IBM -970 boxes and screw moto for putting Apple so...

I received mine a few weeks ago horrobiz, I've not had a problem with it since I figured out I stuck some older ram in it. I've started a website where I post CoreCrib info if your interested. Links...

Apple needs to boost sales, this might do it for them.

I agree with Agasthya, Apple will do whatever it takes to get you to buy a new machine. They are down to 2.2% of the market and have lost 31% of their desktop sales. They really need everyone to...

I think we all have to read this with a bit of pessimism. Motorola has ruined it for any Mac fan. Hopefully Apple did switch to IBM and the 970 is real.

Speed tests versus a G4 do not mean much....

I don't agree, but if you've watched my posts in the "corecrib is a scam section" you would know why.

I bought the Crib because I'm a new Mac user. I had a Beige G3 junked from work, I bought the...

I have a Western Digital 100GB 8mb Special Edition drive. I'd recommend it for the 3yr. warranty. The 8mb does make a slight difference. You also get a slightly lower latency with an SE drive. ...

Why would I post to MacNN forums when the Crib is the first mac I've owned?

Go to Apple.com, the "Ultimate" machine is $3799. I said Power Macs priced to $1500-3000, why argue they don't sell a...

I wasn't preaching anything. I'm not in a cult or religion.

My opinion, is that all-in-one designs stink. You only get a 1 year warranty on a new mac. What do you do when your eMac monitor...

What hassle is there to building your own Mac? The only hassle I had was inferior memory I tried to use. I've had more trouble building PC's than I had building my CoreCrib. I had the machine put...

I'm typing this response out on a CoreCrib. I love it. It is a nice solution to Apple's insanely price tower boxes.
