That totally sucks!
Now that I've got my ANSs running beautifully, I'd love to make it the most
kick-ass machine on the planet. It's too bad that nobody makes upgrade
cards for it. A 604e/200 is no slouch, but I'd prefer a 604e/350 or a G3.
Somebody out there should hassle Newer or PowerLogix to custom-fit us some
cards.
A 400mhz G3 in one of these boxes would rock!

Not that I know of.
