I've recently been trying to put together a dedicated OS 9 system starting with a Blue and White from ebay.
I'd really like to use a relatively modern VGA monitor (a viewsonic). The onboard ATI Rage 128 supports VGA, which was initially encouraging, until it crashed pretty quickly after startup. I realize that being locked into the PCI format will put the kibosh on visions of graphics glory, but is there at least some remedy for modest utility with this older machine I seem to be developing a curious attachment to? Been a Mac guy since '99, and grew to love OS 9. Just in time to be seduced by Job's insistence that a new way was imperative. Followed that route well enough....but still. Don't have to tell you guys any more than that, I'm sure.
