Oltretutto faccio sempre lo sconto a quanto leggo in materia visto che, comprensibilmente, parecchi hanno difficoltà a distinguere i vari modelli ed esistono sempre i Lombard ed anche i Pismo a 400.
Se si tratta di un espansione del processore non credo si possa mai trovare una citazione chiara ed univoca di un Wallstreet/PDQ a 400 MHz
(evidenzio parole chiave perché il testo è lungo)
Certamente non è né un Lombard né un Pismo, perché il mio porta
tastiera nera e non grigia, e nella
parte alta dello schermo non ha la mela ma la
scritta PowerPC, e nella
parte bassa non ha la
scritta centrale PowerBook (Lombard) né la scritta centrale PowerBook G3 (Pismo) ma la scritta
laterale PowerBook G3 e la
mela arcobaleno centrale. E' quindi insindacabilmente un Wallstreet
.
Il
retro lo conferma, ripubblico ancora la foto, questa è un'impronta digitale.
Data di uscita sul mercato
Il Wallstreet è uscito nel 1998, il Lombard nel 1999 il Pismo nel 2000,
io l'ho preso nel 1998 ed era un modello nuovo. Quindi è un Wallstreet
Il
Family Number è: M4753 e l'HD è da 4GB (quindi è inequivocabilmente un Wallstreet o un Walstreet/PDQ

E la scelta si ridurrebbe a soli 2 modelli, perché siccome se è un G3 266 è la versione PDQ e invece se è la 292 è la versione Wallstreet, la mia è la versione PDQ perché la mia base è 266.
Abbiamo anche appurato che si può espandere il processore e portarlo a 400 MHz...

Apple updated the WallStreet design four months later with the introduction of the 'Series II' PowerBook G3, also known as 'WallStreet II' and 'PDQ'. Except for one low-end model, the 14" display was standard, and all models now had a cache and a 66 MHz system bus.
Io ho il monitor da 14 e la bus speed a 66 MHz
Ho provato anche a metterlo sotto test con MacBench 4, mi dà pure lui i 400 MHz ma di Bus Speed 100 MHz

The only other substansive difference between WallStreet and PDQ is that the newer model has ATI Rage Pro video, a small improvement over the Rage II graphics in the Series I models.
Il mio ha la Ati Rage Pro.
MacBench 4

The 233 MHz PDQ model included a 512 KB L2 cache, which helped it achieve a MacBench 4 rating of 764. That's over 70% higher than the cacheless 'MainStreet' model it replaced - and the reason we label the MainStreet a Second Class Mac. It should have had a cache.
The middle PowerBook now had a 266 MHz CPU, which helped it benchmark at 941 - just what you'd expect from a 7% faster CPU. And at the top, the 300 MHz PDQ squeaked past the 292 MHz WallStreet with a 1052 score on MacBench 4 - just 2% better.
Il mio ha raggiunto gli 865-66 (sarebbe più vicino al 941 del 266 MHz)
And now, ladies & gentlemans... the 400 MHz card (out of stock) for G3 Wallstreet!

Like Wallstreets, Lombards can be 'faked'. A 400MHz CPU can be placed in a 333MHz model and build-to-order 400s could have their DVD drives exchanged for a CD-ROM unit (rare, but possible). Test playing a DVD disc in a 400 is one way to tell. All Lombards also read CDRWs. Most 333s and 400s came with 4.0 or 6.0GB drives, although a 12GB hard disc was an option. Late production 333 Lombards came with 4.6GB drives. It'll also take 512MB RAM.
Some Lombards have had the short-lived 466MHz/1MB Newer Technology G3 CPU upgrade installed, but these are very scarce since Newer has gone to the wall. While it's not particularly likely to happen, note there's no warranty on the work done on this item any longer. Look for the forthcoming Powerlogix upgrades for the Lombard (up to 500MHz).
Unlike the Wallstreet, the Lombard sports only one CardBus slot, but this means you can add FireWire, Zoomed Video or an Ultra SCSI card. The 400MHz model still holds its value today and its speed is roughly comparable with the 400MHz Pismo and Titanium 400 when using general-purpose applications.

Great Under Mac OS 9
The WallStreet/PDQ G3 Series is one of the all-time great PowerBooks, but the newest units are now just shy of eight years old; they are not officially supported by OS X 10.3 and later (although Ryan Rempel's XPostFacto hack can install Panther or Tiger on a WallStreet), and they don't support USB or FireWire natively.
I have both USB and FireWire PC card adapters for mine, but it's not quite the same thing. And the WallStreet only supports 512 MB of RAM, which I consider marginal for decent OS X support.
The WallStreet flies running Mac OS 9.2.2 - even on my 233 MHz unit with 512 KB of backside cache, the second-slowest WallStreet variant. The ultimate OS 9 revision is rock solid on a WallStreet (I've gone more than three months at a time in daily service without rebooting), and I find that the 192 MB of RAM I have installed is more than ample with OS 9.x.
However, if you have a 292 MHz or 300 MHz WallStreet, or if you've installed a 400 MHz or 500 MHz processor upgrade, you may find performance with OS X satisfactory, if not scintillating, especially if you max the RAM out to 512 MB.
Tiger può girare anche sul mio
