Re: [PLUG] PPC mobo/proc??


the only G5 (PPC 970) systems i have seen are the Apple G5 and IBM
machines (Power4 machines) the only mobo/cpu i have seen for sale is the
PPC970 reference board and it is like $4000 for just the mobo and cpu
were as a 1.6Ghz G5 can be had for around $1800 including a cheap VGA
CRT...
