[G4] Integratng with home stereo

[Roger Harris]

I have the same simple hookup as Nathan. I have a beige G3 OS 9.1 I use 
as a print and scan server. I have iTunes 2 on it and run a cable around 
the corner to the stereo. I don't care about remotes as I usualy pick a 
folder in iTunes and let it play all day. I can use the remote to the 
stereo to adjust volume.

Any of the old PCI Macs (not the 7300) and many of the beige G3s have an 
RCA type jack in the back.

I use the free "WireTape" software from Ambrosia to capture hours of my 
favorite internet jazz radio stations. This plays back in QuickTime or 
you can rip it to iTunes. The rip takes quite a while as these file are 
often several hours. I prefer to leave them as QuickTime. It doesn't get 
any better than this.
