PowerPc 9500/132 what on earth can I do with this machine
Hello everyone
I hope this post doesn’t cause too much hysterical laughter
anyway….
working here in Ohio at a mis dized university and my boss unearthed this accienct powerPc and says to me “you’re the mac guy… wha can we do with this?” my gut instinct is to send it to the intenational space station but I thought I would give it the old college try at least to see what other might suggest
I considered making it a quicktime server as it has two scsi drives with a wopping 16gigs of space
any help would be appreciated
take care

I believe it has 7 drive bays in it. Pretty unusual for any computer. I have no idea what those type of hard drives cost now, but this might be cheaply converted into a very large backup device for important data.
