After 2 days of blood and sweat I finally got os X.1.5 installed on my g3 beige tower mac (thats an old one, for those outta the loop). I also threw in a radeon 7000 and a bigger hd, Now I just wish the osx.2 upgrade would install but I have had no luck with it and I still need to get a copy of os 9.1 or higher for classic support. Another thing that bytes is epson doesn't have a driver for os x yet for my printer and my not make one, since its an older printer, a styles photo 700. But all in all I feel good about my set up
