Comment:

I have a close senior citizen friend whose son gave him an older PowerMac 5260 100 Mhz with 603e processor per what I can decifer looking at it. They want to put some card games and the like on it so they can pass the time away. I know nothing about Apples and sorry for that. But, I went to some freeshare / freeverse websites to download some games onto a CD (using my Dell computer) and hopefully just put that in his computer and install them via the application program. But, I don't really know what operating system I am to be downloading for, etc. Is there any site for these older computers to get such games? Things like solitare, euchre, Bridge, etc. Looks like it was manufactured around '96. Thanks

The original system on your Performa was 7.5.3.
but It should support OS9 if you have quite a bit
of ram.
At startup, you might be shown what the system
is, or, from the finder, click the Apple menu and
select About This Mac, or This Computer. It
should tell you what the system is and how much
ram is installed.
Here's one site for games. Google lists many
more!
