Hi. I might acquire a G4 Gigabit ethernet from work that's been
sitting around for a while. I've troubleshot the thing and
determined it to be a bad mobo or a bad power supply, but after
talking to two Apple techs they said it was the mobo. Looking at the
power supply connector, I've noticed that on my own Digital audio
there's a 22 point connector, whereas on the Gigabit ethernet it is a
20-point connector. Now I've also checked the specs from the
lowendmac.com page. Aside from an extra PCI slot (I have two free in
my DA anyway) and a 33mhx bus speed increase, would there be any
benefits from going ot a Digital Audio mobo instead of a Gigabit
ethernet, even if I planned to add a processor upgrade in the
future? I appreciate all your help.
Eric
