Response to: "It would cost a couple of thousand for two new machines"

The 3400 laptop runs on a 603e chip, which is the generation of chips prior to the G3 that's in your iMac. MacOS X will not install on a 603e without using something like XPostFacto to tell the installer that the system has a different chip than it actually does, he's not really able to move to MacOS X.


I used XPostFacto to run 10.1 and 10.2 on an old upgraded PowerMac 7500 (G3/400) for a bit, but eventually gave the system away after many years of great service.
