There isn’t even a forum for Powermac G5 on this forum. But, if it does work, what do you guys do with your Powermac G5? And, the price was still unreasonably pricey. So, I went online to find a cord that was at a more reasonable price. It's so different that finding it is a bish! The only place I could find one was 2 hours away at my not so local Micro Center for $34!!!! A cord that is different than any power cords I had laying around. It turns out that what I salvaged was a late 2005 Powermac DC 2ghz G5 with an Nvidia 6600 LE GPU and it uses a C19 power cord. the different part thing got me because I couldn't power the thing on when I got home with the spare power cord parts I had laying around. the nostalgia got to me and the spirit of something "great" and "different" got to me. 12.0 is most definitely not compatible with the version of OS X on my MacBook Pro.
TENFOURFOX MAC OS X 10.4.11 UPGRADE
Whenever I load Firefox it tells me to upgrade to 12.0 for security reasons.
TENFOURFOX MAC OS X 10.4.11 MAC OS X
And, I know-having a Powerbook G4 that I would be limited to an antiquated version of OS X (OSX Leopard, to be precise). I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.11 'Intel,' TenFourFox doesn't help with that. 18 years later and that same Powermac G5 is now being thrown out for any brave soul to take.
Months later, and as the company moved to a bigger office, every editing suite had one of these silver cheesegrater-looking towers.īut, here it was. They must have been testing it on whether they can use it for Avid since that was the company's NLE of choice at the time. I remember it because there was only one at the time. Anyway, a Powermac G5 showed up in the office one day and a couple IT guys were working on the machine. And, as everyone knows, the bread and butter of reality-TV shows is to make fame mundane. In fact, the last time I saw a Powermac G5 was when I was a lot younger than I man now, 18 years younger, in fact, in 2005 when I worked for a reality-TV production company as a production assistant. At the same time, I was thrilled because as infamous as the G5 was, it was also famous for being infamous, if you know what I mean.
I remembering feeling slightly disappointed because of the infamy of the G5 Powermacs and that if it is, indeed, garbage and non-working, I wouldn't be able to part the parts for my own working Mac Pro 5,1 at home. a GPU, there were even RAM sticks, and then a giant embossed sign reading, “G5” behind an acrylic shroud. A sticker on the top handle read, "Ok." Is it "Ok?" I quickly checked its guts, which is easily done by flipping up the latch on the rear. There was no mistaking at what I was looking at-a bonafide mac tower discarded like any old PC. I approached the object casually as to not bring any attention to what I was going to do. I found a silver tower computer shimmering in the sunlight at my local recycling center.
