I won a Sonnet Crescendo G3 450 MHz for the Power Computing Clone from Yahoo Japan Auctions, but when I can get it, I can compare it to the Buffalo G3 466 MHz.

That is the same exact card I have in my B&W Power Mac G3.

It's the top panel, the floppy panel (the one on the very top). Those are the ones that seem to go missing or go loose. I have seen the top floppy panel go missing on 8600/9600/G3 on eBay, but there is no 3D print model for a replacement.

Believe it or not, Interware wasn't the only Japanese manufacturer that made G3 accelerators. Buffalo and Hoshino Metal Industries Ltd, later SOLDAM corporation, is a defunct PC parts, accessory and case company from what I get from looking at their site at soldam.co.jp on Internet Archive...

It really almost look like the Sun card. This is probably an official Radeon 7000 card made by ATI directly, meaning they are usually not cut down and easy to flash. I had some Radeon 9000 Pro cards that were made by ATI directly I bought used and flashed easily with the Mac rom.

I find that a Suin XVR-100, which is just basically a rebranded ATi Radeon 7000 is an easy card to flash to Mac since it has a full size 128k ROM. Not too surprising since Sun systems also use Open Firmware, and the video card actually gets detected on Mac OS X and 9 as a display adapter and can...

I just got a Power Macintosh 9600 recently, and I am wondering if anyone is willing to also make a 3D model of the floppy panel. It seems that those are the ones that go missing or become damaged or go missing. There is a thread on the 68kmla trading forums looking for the floppy panel for the...
