Air Port Card Got Me Back Online!
PostedSeptember 7, 2013
I upgraded my Mac Power Book Titanium and G4 Tower a few years ago with OWC parts and they worked great! Then I lost my job and home...and then, no more "land line" modem phone line! So my Macs were out of commission for the internet and could not afford to replace them, and ended up with a "virus sucking" cheap Window's Laptop... Nothing but virus problems with Windows that I never had on my Macs. Now being disgusted with Window's Virus problems, I decided to get Air Port Cards for both my older Macs... Now even my old Mac Titanium 400 mhz laptop can get online...It's not fast, and software updates are few, but it does get on line and is usable for word processing and other useful applications. The 2001 G4 Dual Processor Tower was upgraded with from Dual 450 mhz to Dual 1.8 GHZ processors and an M-Audio 24/96k sound card, and another hard drive... The upgrade of the G4 to 1.8 dual processors makes it a real fast and reliable workhorse and a "keeper". No problems getting online now with the Air Port Card, and no reason to have to spend over $3,500.00 to replace it with a Mac Pro. OWC supplied the quality upgrade parts, and they have twice now had my online orders processed within one hour with tracking numbers, and I have gotten the parts I need in about 2 to 3 days with free shipping! Best of all, I no longer have to contend with Window's Viruses on the non-Intel OSX Macs, and that suits me just fine.
This review isn't really for the product, shoot, we all knew it was going to work! My review is about OWC and how every time I need to fix or replace something, they always seem to have it. Saved my life more than a few times! You guys are the greatest. This Airport was for my old Power MAC M5183. Since Apple computers never seem to die, I had set it up as my jukebox, hiding in the corner of a closet playing all of the tunes I've stored on it. When the Airport stopped working I was in a panic, because I never thought I'd find a replacement. I was wrong and once again OWC came through for me.
