I own three of these (!), the TAM, the Cube, and the Mac XL.
They all look good on the shelf, but the TAM is actually still occasionally useful for running Classic MacOS software. It can boot Systems 7 through 9, although even with the G3 accelerator I fitted to it, it can't boot OS X, because it boots using the original CPU and than an extension switches control to the G3. OS X must boot from a G3.
- Lammy 3y ago> OS X must boot from a G3. That limitation was introduced in Panther. Mac OS X 10.0 through Jagwire support the 603/604 even though their installers block installation on those models and they don't include full driver support (hence XPostFacto). I haven't tried it myself (my TAM is happy on 8.6) but there's a kernel patch for Tiger too: https://www.jump-ing.com/?en/Projects/Tiger_on_7600 https://www.jump-ing.com/?en/Projects/Tiger_on_7600 https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/os-x-tiger-on-a-603-604-cpu.1908276/ https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/os-x-tiger-on-a-603-604...
