    Oh, one other crazy question, If I buy a CDRW/DVD drive for this mac, can I just buy one that is good for all computers.... or does it have to be specifically for a mac? I was thinking about buying this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...5122053955&rd=1 Would it work? In only says windows OSs.

    How much should I be spending if I buy OSX Panther 10.3?

    Thanks very much for all your help and no, that was not too much reading, it was very interesting. I bought this G3 from a friend... I'll see what I can do about the CDS, I hope he did not lose them. This is my first mac, I found it very entertaining that I could crash it by a push of a button.... but I also know that macs have the "reputation" of being much more stable than PCs... so I'll give it a second shot . Thanks so much once again!

    Thanks WiredMonkey. The tower is a green and white tower, it looks identical to this blue and white one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...5719151195&rd=1 See those two little buttons under the power one? Well, one of them is the one I hit.

    Wow, your good! I just bought this G3 and the previous owner did not give me any OSX CDs. As far as what OSX it is, no ideas there . When I boot up the machine it freezes on a grey screen with an apple in the backround. I have an external floppy drive, can I make a floppy that can reboot it? I have no idea what the model number is, where could I find it? I see the ethernet # and the serieal #.

    Hi, My question is very simple, last night while I was playing some music, I hit a small button under the power button on my g3 powermac. It shut off immediately, and now when I try to turn the thing on, I get an error message and it does nothing. It does not even load into OSX! I am very confused in what I should do.... any ideas? Thanks! This is what the error message says: System Failure: cpu=0; code=00000001 (Corrupt Stack) Latest crashinfo for CPU 0: Exception state (sv=0x15A38A00) PC = 0x (the numbers go accross the screen, and then, it says in brackets (System Failure)) backtrace termin
