Tried updating the Men's Shed iMac to Sierra 4 last week, it got hung up on the 2nd restart so I did a Time Machine restoration to its state prior to the update.
Tried the update again today, it worked fine.
Just the simple action of laying the G5 onto its side so I could get at its guts has left my back rather sore. Most aggravating.
G5 not looking good. Tomorrow I'll jiggle the RAM & the video card plus check the backup battery then hit the SMU button before trying again.
It's difficult, that's a heavy bugger of a thing and my back isn't up to much pissing about with weighty items.
This is not good. Went to boot my G5 PowerMac today, got weird coloured squiggles on the monitor then it stopped doing anything. Changed monitor, no difference. Booted into single-user mode, now giving Applejack a go on it. This is how the screen appears:
Fans are running flat out, too.
Arrive at darts venue, no-one else here. Then I worked out why. Daylight savings ended two days ago & the last timepiece I checked was the Amazon Kindle which DOES NOT automatically adjust its time, unlike my phones, computers & iPad.
So I was an hour early.
@streakmachine While the new iPad shares the same dimensions & screen technology with the original iPad Air, its graphics performance is significantly greater, according to Geekbench. Very significantly.
@literary As good as is possible. Until I do something stupid like twist too far or lift something awkward.
@literary Glad to hear it, Kerri. I've not been that flash myself lately but things are improving.
@streakmachine AFAIK my DC 2.3 is only exceeded by the quad-core 2.5, with two 2.5 GHz DC processors.
