Old Mac Found

[Violent Unrest in Allentown]

I found my family's old Power Mac 6100 yesterday.

I'm going to have to find the OS 8 (or 7) boot disk as it won't go past the startup screen.

Hard Drive Space: 650 Megs.

I found this neat site telling me some things I can do to upgrade and make it useable.

Also: it has ethernet via this:

Apple Attachment Unit Interface (AAUI) port

Not my pictures:



Any suggestions for what I should do with it?

Fix it up and sell it. But you most likely wouldn't get a lot at all. Unless its a classsic. ;)


Would make a bad server....I don't know what else is even possible with that. Whats the processor speed on it?

Assuming you can get the mainboard out you might be able to fit a MiniATX or ITX formfactor in there, you could stealth a new PC in the case. That'd be pretty awesome.
