need Sonnet Presto PPC Mac OS 8.5/8.6 Enabler software

And I shouldn't have called you a git, sorry 🙂

What's the plan with your enabler?  Is OS 8.5 usable on a PPC PB500?  I've a Newertech 167Mhz PB540c that seems quite happy with OS 8.1; it has the original Apple SCSI to IDE adapter sled in it.  Put a 16GB CF card and it's been fine, filled up with MP3s.

I realise this is a dead thread... but I was rummaging about on the internet and found the attached. Thought people might be interested.

This is quite funny because I just found it on one of my PPC upgraded Quadras today as well. I may compare versions between yours and mine and if they're different, I'll upload mine too.

EDIT: Looks like they're the same!

At least we would have got a copy one way on another.

I stuck it on macintosh garden earlier on the end of the existing Sonnet page.
