The Perfect MorphOS Machine (Well Almost)

Sell it on eBay and use the proceeds to buy two 2.7 GHz CPU modules for the PowerMac.

Perfect? Not really, add an ssd boot drive and your really close though I think. It would boot in 2 seconds! (I think so anyway, my emac 1.25ghz with really old 40gb boot drive boots in 6 seconds)

I have a 64GB Crucial m4 mSATA SSD in my 1.67GHz PowerBook G4 and it boots in four or five seconds.

@ rzookol

Could you post a screen shot showing your systems video specs?

Yeah selling the 6800 GT probably makes sense.  They look like they fetch about half the price of a powermac G5.

though I do agree with you,  the title:  "The Perfect MorphOS Machine (Well Almost) expect for no SDD nor 2.7 Ghz" does not quite sell the thread as effectively.

My PowerMac G5 has X1950Xt 256 MB and it works perfectly (OF+MacosX)

Sorry about keeping this thread alive, but one last question.  What does (OF+MacOSX) mean?

I get the MacOSX part, but not the OF.

OF=OpenFirmware - similar to a PC's bios
