No, I bought an ATi Orion when my AV1710 (Screen) gave up. I
connected a KDS VS19 (I think, 19" monitor) to it. I also have a
MaxPowr G4/400 card in it and bought the installer from Sonnet which
lets me install OS X on [Apple] unsupported machines. By now,
everything works except the CD Writer. It's not a CD-RW burner, just
writes 'normal' CD-ROMs and I don't think it'll ever work.
The Keyspan FireWire card is supported as well as some no-name USB
card. Even had the scanner (SCSI) and the MO (also SCSI) drive work
just fine. The scanner hung the machine though, when I exited the
scanning application (kernel_task was using 98% of the CPU).
If anybody wants more experiences with 'Running MacOS X on 'Old
World' machines', let me know and I write up something.
Best regards,
Chris
