A nice evening with some #Crémant de Bourgogne and #Warcraft on my "new" #ibook G3

I have such memories of this game playing on my old #386. But I also remember the game taking just a few 1.4MB of ARJ compressed floppies and not 80Mb+ as the Mac version seems to be.

But I should have read mission objectives. Because I have explored the map and killed all the enemies and then later found out that was not the mission.

HTTPS including TLS 1.3 and SSH2. Configuring #Classilla with Crypto Ancienne (floodgap.com/software/classill) to work as HTTPS proxy.

And doing so with the use of #ssheven (github.com/cy384/ssheven) to ssh into a local server.

Now I have a #MacOS9 laptop to replace my #MacMIniG4 as my "Classic Mac" so the mini can do new adventures with #MorphOS. But first I will spend some time setting up MachTen.

Now after installing #MacOS9 on an #Apple #iBook G3 600MHz I did some benchmark against my #MacMiniG4 also running MacOS9 (via the ROM hacked image).

The #PowerPC G3 in this iBook surprisingly slow. I expected half of CPU performance, of the G4 not less than a third compared to the 1.2GHz #PPC G4 in the Mini. And it's rather close with the built in reference result of a #Powermac G3 300MHz.

The FPU benchmark looks better though...

Fantastic! #TotallyNormalComputing

Booting #MacOS9 Installer from USB, and without even touching #OpenFirmware. I really like the community for this kind of service!

'Mac OS 9.2.2 "boot kit" for booting your G3/G4 from an USB stick' by that-ben on Macintosh Repository just works out of the box! On a #powerpc #G3 #ibook with USB1.

And it was kinda fast to boot and install too. My #Powerbook got some company now!.
