Apple Imac g3
« on: March 13, 2011, 10:59:15 AM »
Hello Computer World!
I finally got one of those Imac g3s! anyway Im new to the PowerPc CPUs and i just have a few questions. I recieved with this computer the Mac OSX 10.2 disks so im reinstalling right now to get a fresh install. My questions are:

From Mac OSX 10.2, is it possible to still run the computer in Os 9.2. I have some classic games i want to run and was thinking of dual boot 10. with 9.2. There was a vid on utube showing it so i know its possible.

second-I heard a rumor that if u intall 10.3 it updates the firmware making it impossible to downgrade to  OS 9.2. Is that true? I have a power mac g3 beige running OS 9.2 but i want to sell and just keep this one.

Those are all my questions at this point. Please help out for i always loved the imac g3. PS its a tangerine slot loading here are the spcs

400 MHZ power pc g3 CPU
20 GB hdd (not original taken from imac g3 snow)
192 MB Ram
DVD ROM
 Mac osx 10.2
