![]() Like 12 gigs.Like earlier releases in the series, Kid Pix Deluxe 3 is designed to offer children a virtual art studio for play and experimentation. If you can get swap to work in OSX, if you go that route, make a BIG file. Oh, and get the biggest fucking HDD you can find new. Past that, you can message me about anything you need to know on OSX or Morph and I can help where I can. Honestly 2 GB is enough for it so don't be discouraged by that. Some machines you could put 3 GB ram in with a hack, most could only do 2. Look at the speed of your hardware and stuff the thing with ram. I recommend look up what PPC can do nowadays for what you want to do. I can bet on that 95% (depends on the clock rate really). ![]() Now, if you don't mind 75/80 bucks on a lisence, morph OS will make that emac about as fast as your desktop. ![]() And the problem with linux is no one learns how to make a decent kernel in big endianess. Problem with OSX is it was never actually made correctly for PPC. Problem with morph is it has a retarded license that no one understands. Well, it is, but only if you're retarded and don't look stuff up on the shit you don't know. People want to make Big endian procs play by little endian rules, then the system doesn't run fast, then they complain powerpc is slow and terrible. Tie the GPU to the CPU and use the CPU for GPU overhead, and either absolutely populate the RAM and bus, or don't use it at all. These machines never were utilized correctly and it seems the amiga crowd and some independant OS crowds got it right. They supported the M68k systems until 2004 for a reason. I hate to spin doom, but apple never really thought this shit through. 7 years ago when linux and ppc were on fire in the same whole maybe it would have been better, but unless you can do your own kernel and are willing to use Mesa and get 0 GPU performance you're fucked. I can't get anything to run consistantly. At least you can play roller coaster tycoon 3 right?Īnd in linux you'll have a pain in the ass just getting anything to install stable. However unless you have some way to utilize memory management and a way to keep the god damn swap turned on, you're fucked in 10.5. In 10.5 you'll have the newest apps possible and the best utilization of the GPU possible. You're lucky if thats one of the ones that went out in 2006 because at least it has a jump clock and PC2. Also with 10.4 you have at least SOME memory management in ram.Ģ - 10.5. You use TenfourFox/bird for browsing and email and have 9.2 stuff available to you as well, though with some back fire. If you're going to be using OSX you have 2 options:ġ - Use 10.4 and have classic as well (OS 9.2) as OSX available. OSX was NEVER great on these things and I yearn for the day that its a flat price for morph. OSX may be neat to run for a while, but if I remember that thing has a G4 7447-A2 at anywhere between 1 GHZ and 1.42. Past that you will have to learn the amiga crowd. MorphOS will give you a snappy computer to get on the net with. You coulsd install gentoo if you wanted, but the ATi 9660 in the eMac's is completely different than a normal 9660 in PC land. If you want to seriously use it, get MorphOS and learn some amiga shit.
