I was a mac only guy for a LONG time, last one I had was a PowerPC by Motorola. Lately I've been interested in SFF, with a couple old Dells, and that has me thinking about doing the same with some of the older Mac Mini systems, but yipes, somebody is dreaming about prices, me or them?
Some things I have in mind to play around with;
Firewire, I've got a few devices with firewire including a big high end AV receiver.
OS9, as an OLD user I've got some OLD software I might like to run.
Linux, I know why not just use a PC, but part of it is the firewire and maybe a music server like Plex.
Obviously one needs to be OLD to fully support OS9, and I think one needs to be at least i5, but could be a core duo might work. Am I going to need to do a lot of hunting to find stuff in the play with it toy cheap range of $50 to $150?
