Does Jaguar support Serial or SCSI?
I have been waiting for the day that I can get rid of OS 9 for good, so having serial and scsi support would definitely do that. I was wondering if any of you know whether it is in the new builds of Jaguar or if they are ever going to support it. My confidence in having these work on X is dwindling...

Also, doesn't the X Serve have both? I would think this means it supports them quite well.

I have a SCSI CDRW, ADB Keyboard, screaming fast 56k GV modem in the modem port (no DSL or Cable in my hood ). They all work great.
I had a wonderful 9x12 Wacom tablet, but gave it to my bro (still in 9). I think I will be pushed off this machine by SW manufacturers who drop support; not by performance. My WACOM worked fine until they didn't make OSX ADB drivers. F'thrm, I want a new tablet but dont want to buy WACOM because of their Apple like upgrade policies (or is Apple Wacom like).
At work, I have a G4/500agp w/ a scsi card and drive...no problems.

Screaming fast 56k modem? You obviously don't have cable or DSL! ;-)
Seriously though, serial ports work fine in OSX, whoever says otherwise doesn't know what they are talking about. I used an external 56k modem on my 7600 in OSX for about half a year until I got a cable modem.
That means hacking the CD to get it to install
Here are the specs on my Beige G3

- AV Personality Card
- 416MB RAM
- Internal SCSI Zip
- Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical
- Radeon Mac:Edition 32MB DDR

All I need to do is Max out the RAM and do that CPU upgrade. I am just worried about OS X not installing becase of a third party CPU upgrade and having to hack the CD to get it to install. I will not hack the CD to install Mac OS X.[*][ 07-27-2002: Message edited by: Mac Write ]</p>
<strong>I am very nervious about doing the ZIFF upgrade becuase of going into unsupported mode.

Why? Your Beige G3 is supported now, adding a Zif upgrade is not going to make it a different machine. It will still be a beige G3, and will still be supported.
I don't have the time or patients to hack the CD to get the OS to install if the installer CPU upgrades not supported.
I won't do the upgrade if I can't install the OS from the CD Apple gives me without any modification.
<strong>Apple states CPU upgrade's NOT SUPPORTED, which means installing OS X,

You could just install the OS and then install the CPU upgrade. Also, I think there's at least one CPU upgrade mfc who claims that their stuff's is completely compatible with OS X, i.e. no drivers needed.
