I'm looking for some full install, not upgrade, CDs of either 10.0.3 or 10.1.

Also looking for a ZIF processor, preferably at least 350 MHz, and even more preferably, for not a whole lot of money

I've been piecing together a beige G3 (being poor sucks! ) to get it ready for OS X, and it's almost time to make that leap.

So, if anyone can help me out, let me know.

Thanks!

I've got a full retail version of OSX 10.0 and I have the upgrade to 10.1. Make me an offer.
Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I have a fully functinal G3 350 ZIF pulled from a B&W G3 (100Mhz). The heatsink is still in my G3, so naturally you can't have it...sorry.

$15 shipped USPS Priority?

Those are my evaulations and I can provide eBay feedback (200+) as well.

My beige 266 G3 has a 66 MHz bus. Do you know if your processor will work?

If you are going to be using OS X, at least use 10.2. 10.0 isn't good for anything except playing with the widgets.

Thanks for the chuckle! I am aware of this. I previously had an iMac DV that went through the various OS X versions. All I have left of that computer is the 10.2 upgrade disks, but I need a previous version of OS X to use them on this beige G3 I've pieced together. So yeah, I'll only be at 10.1 long enough to insert my 10.2 disks

Just hack out your upgrade discs or buy a full Jaguar install. It's not worth the hassle, if you ask me.

I've got everything you're looking for: a ZIF 400MHz (which will run on a 66MHz bus if you set the multiplier right, but I don't have a Heatsink available either.), the 10.0.3 install, and a 10.1 upgrade disk. You can have the whole set for $40 USD shipped.
