I just came across this site today and looks great,so I signed up immeadiately. I just wanted to say 'hi'. Working on my first mod.

Welcome to MacMod!

Can you tell us a little about the mod you're working on?

Welcome to MacMod! How about letting us know a little about your mod?

Well I'm going to enter the Great Mod Challenge and don't want to give away any ideas
I'll document and post later. I've only got 13 days left! I just decided to do this project a few days ago and came across this site looking for PSU modifications. I will say it's a G4 gigabit mod.

wolf,

the mod challenge isn't until august of next year... We surely hope that you will compete, but its not 13 days away :unsure:

13 days left? The Challenge ended in August 31 and the next one isn't until... a long way away.
:huh:

Or are you talking about something else? :silly:

But don't worry, there's always next year!

:blink: :blink:

lol, I'm an idiot. Man, do I feel stupid. I have no idea why I thought it was this month...

Well, I guess there's no secret anymore :unsure:

I have a G4 gigabit ethernet with a dead power supply. I'm installing the original PSU from my dual 867 MDD which I replaced with the 'quieter' one from Apple's replacement program (it was no quieter, the original was fine to begin with). No big deal here - it's been done before. But then I decided to install an ATX Intel motherboard with a P4 dual core pentium with hyper-threading in this G4 case.

Now I know there's a lot of sighs, eyerolls, and disbelief out there, but I'm truly a devote Mac man. I want to want to run Tiger on this beast! Actually, I hope to make it dual boot. I do web design on the side and need a PC for testing purposes only.

your not alone on this site wolf. A good number of macmodders are interested in dual/tripple booting their mac. Many are just holding off until the x86 release is gm. But I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

Its okay to have a pc as long as you put osx on it. You can download osx x86. Give it a try and let me know how it is. I myself just cant get watercooling out of my freaking mind! Hmmph. Maybe I should just try it. Anyway, make sure to post something on your mod. you can do a mod guide too.

I just got a G4 case off eBay and I'm looking to put a new Athlon X2 system into it. I have a friend whose father works at Sun, so they get good deals. Technically, Tiger for x86 should run on it, but it may not. I'm looking into dual-booting as well, because I need a machine for all the games I play, and I currently don't have an x86 machine. Ah, yes, games: the only good use for Windows... Plus web design, maybe...
