I love how you censored applying the thermal paste so people wouldn't talk about how you put too much or less compound.

I miss Druaga. Ian, whatever you're doing ATM I hope you're well. Youtube hasn't been the same since you left.

Your thermal compound wasn't pixelated enough...needs more pixelation for proper cooling.

hey sean! thanks for trying out my minecraft 1.8.9 "PORT" to power pc. hope you enjoy it.. but it seems like someone lifted my release from the vintageapplereddit and put it onto the garden though :( but yeah the missing texures. no idea why some textures dont want to work. the 1.6.4 port (not released yet) does not have any issues with the new textures like horses

It's a shame Apple didn't keep going with PPC, but look at them now.

Loved the Digital Audio PowerMacs. I upgraded mine with a dual 1.8Ghz Sonnet Card, and it was great, albeit running a bit unstable at that speed. Like you, I sold mine, and am filled with regrets. Would be a great addition to my current collection.
