Comment: Hello Does anybody know how I can upgrade my Power-PC 9600/120 from OS 8.0 to OS 8.5 or better without using a new processor? I own OS 8.5.1 for G3, but (of course) it wonŽt install on the old Power-PC.

Reply: (edit)Search the apple support site using either "9600" or "OS 8.5". I know they have a page with a table showing which machines/processors can run which OSs - I can't remember the URL, but this search should probably find it.
