Like you, I finally bought a used 2009, 27 inch iMac because I finally got tired of fighting issues with newer video codecs on the Internet and I couldn't stream Netflix from my older PowerPC Mac. It was a great Mac for me for a long time.
1080p video, of course, was out of the question on this old a Mac.
#Nanosaur 2 windows amazon 720p
If the videos weren't wrap in Adobe Flash code and I was watching Internet video that had 720p versions, I could watch these on my Mac with only mild issue. My 1.25 Ghz G4 ran OS X 10.5 pretty well on 2 GBs of RAM, upgraded 256 VRAM video card, 3 internal HDs and lots of PCI FIreWire and USB 2 cards It was heavily upgraded and it ran pretty well on the Internet. Many people, like me up to a less than a year, ago, are still using older Macs Both G4 and G5, so my bad. I assumed that this was your primary Mac.
Nanosaur, for example, Diablo 2, Tie Fighter/X-wing, and some flight simulators like Fly!2K and F-18 Hornet. Some of those old OS 9 games may be considered primitive by modern standards, but remain enjoyable nevertheless. (like Oni from Bungie, for example) But unfortunately many good OS 9 games were built to operate only on a booted OS 9 system and do not work under Classic mode, even though the native OS9/X Carbon libraries were built to ease this transition for developers for some time before OS X was released. You might be able to find some updates for OSX native versions of software if you are lucky, check the developer support web sites for updates. Only the earlier FW400 G4 models can actually boot into OS 9. After much research I've discoverd Panther would solve all these problems.īoth Panther and Tiger would need to run the same Classic emulation layer for OS 9 games on a FW800 G4. affter I upgraded to Tiger w/OS 9 Classic installed I just found out that a lot of classic OS 9 games and even early PPC games don't run right with Tiger as the OS.
