this is my latest project - very much in alpha stage still, a record shop and vinyl junkie (secondhand collectors kind of people) community web site:

He threw in a ProMac keyboard and a Promouse. the machine had 256 Mb RAM but has no Airport or ZIP and all else is standard as per its initial Apple release. I have put Tiger on it and it works. It was […]
