I assume not...

I am trying to appeal to the seller to exchange for this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi … amp;ih=003, but he hasn't returned my messages. And he has like a '15 day make sure its ok warranty'

Re: No bongs again

So... I return the mobo and the guy doesnt understand why I am having a problem because apparently all qs mobos are compatible with one other processors and what not. Is this true?
Oh and he can't test the mobo I sent back because he doesn't have any systems to do it with... apparently because he sold them all off

Well, that's his problem. He did offer the warranty.


Aw, he's no fun, he fell right over.

Unless you become as little children, there's no way you will believe this crap.

Re: No bongs again

I really wouldn't want to throw more money than I had to at it.  $190 is about all that Mac is worth these days.  I'm not saying G4's are worthless, they are great workhorses, but they're now several generations behind the latest systems.  Consider that you could buy two ebay boards and still pay less than the new one if the first ebay one was bad.  Also consider that you can get used first generation G5 towers for well under $1000 us
