MacMame questions...new to Macs
« on: August 19, 2002, 09:11:04 pm »
I just aquired several macs...
(2) 4400/200 desktops, and (3) 5400/180 all-in-one's

I would like to use these...esp the 5400's for mamers...bartops.

I know absoutely nothing about macs...can someone tell me if these are capable of running the classics? (Pacs, frogger, galaga, etc)

Any advice is very much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
Oh, the memories of living on pizza subs and Dr Pepper...

those should work fine for classics and most mame games just stay away from neo geo and the newer graphic intense stuff.

you can always upgrade the cpu pretty easily and cheaply.

make sure you max the ram, ad a usb card for an ipac and you are ready to rock.

for upgrades and ram check macsales.com and join our macmamecabs-subscribe@yahoogroups.com mailing list for all mac people trying to make mame cabs, we are few but we are determined 8)
