A friend installed the same PowerLogix in a DA DP533 (because of the faster
busspeed) and runs 10.4.9 flawlessy.
And Apple always says that, especially in case of 3d-party upgrades. They
are so clever to take no responsibility in that case.
IIRC, there has been only one upgrade, supported by Apple, the upgrade of
the Quadra 800 to PM 800!

Lot of money!! The same retail version of MacOS 10.4 will cost here (The
Netherlands) Euro 87 (= US$ 115) incl. tax. Offer is from an official Dutch
Apple retailer (<http://www.chipmunk.nl>).
