so, installed it on a fresh machine which has never seen the dongle, but where the cp drivers of course are present.

it is more than 15 years ago that i used a legit 1.6 so it would be impossible to notice a minor difference, but from what i can tell, it 100% works as it should (and minor difference are not to be expected i guess)

after a revision in 4 weeks from now i would give it a go. however, only 3-4 people might be not enough.

i would like see a tester using an older mac without native USB port.

an older mac without native USB port.

Power Macintosh 9600 (and other 1997 beige Power Macs)

@Architecture dont you have a beige g3 going?

[Knezzen]

I've tried it on my 8600 (same as a 9600 but with fewer USB ports) and it works just fine

The 8600 and 9600 share architecture (same logic board family and chipset), but neither has USB — that only came later with the Blue & White G3 (Jan 1999)

I think Knezzen meant fewer PCI slots.
8600 has other other stuff that replaces 3 of the PCI slots of the 9600: built in graphics, and video in/out.

Yeah, too tired when I wrote that.

the 8600 had 8600 slots where you could stick up to 8600 USB cards in.

that is why it is so big and why they never made an iwatch version of it.
