The SuperMac S900 (known as the Pulsar in Europe and Asia) was Umax's first Mac clone and would remain Umax's most powerful, most expandable computer and the last production Mac clone with 6 expansion slots until the S910 arrived.

Thanks a lot for this thorough answer. I enjoy Python and have been using it for more than a year, but I always run into these kinds of problems. It's very helpful to have some affirmation that the Mac OS system isn't set up as well as it could be. – helloB Mar 8 '16 at 18:56. Apple Power Macintosh 9600/350 Specs. All Power Macintosh Models All 1997 Models Dynamically Compare This Mac to Others. Distribute This Page: Bookmark & Share The Apple Power Macintosh 9600/350, based on the Kansas architecture, features a 350 MHz PowerPC 604e 'Mach 5' processor, 64 MB of RAM, a 4.0 GB hard drive, a 24X CD-ROM drive, an internal Zip drive, and an 8 MB IX-Micro Twin Turbo.

The S900 in unique in that it has a second CPU slot, but only accepts a Umax SuperMac secondary processor card. You cannot use any other type of card in that slot, and the second CPU must match the speed of the first.

The primary CPU uses the same daughter card connector as Apple's Power Macs of the same era, providing lots of processor upgrade option to the S900 owner.

Umax was the only clone maker to acquire a Mac OS 8 license from Apple, and the version 5 installer CDs shipped with Mac OS 8.

Troubleshooting

Twins (parrudo Productions) Mac Os X

  • The J700 and S900 have a PCI bridge chip controlling all PCI slots except the first two, which use the normal Apple chip. As a result, only cards that are PCI 2.1 compliant can be installed in slots 3-6 (3-4 for J700). Problematic cards are usually older SCSI cards, and, for some reason, ixMicro cards such as Ultimate Rez (but not the older ixMicro Twin Turbo cards). There are claims that even ixMicro-branded cards have slot preference, and in a multiple-card setup at least one has to be in slot 1 or 2, while the other can be in slot 4 or 5.
  • Newer Tech recommends against using EDO memory in the J700 and S900, because these models have 'occasionally exhibited some problems when running with EDO memory. These problems tend to become more pronounced when updating your machine with a G3 card. . . . Therefore, we are recommending people to stick with FPM (Fast Page Memory) in these machines. If you are already running EDO memory without apparent problems, we certainly don't mean to imply that you should be having problems, merely that you could have some.'
  • Umax suggests updating the J700 and S900 to version 2.0.2 of the Licensing Extension if you're using Mac OS 8 or 8.1.
  • The version of FWB Hard Disk Toolkit that ships with most SuperMacs is not compatible with Mac OS 8 or later. You must use version 2.0.6 or later, available on the Umax software updates page. Be sure to install the new drivers on your hard drive before you run the OS 8 installer. Also, you must be sure that you do not update the driver on your hard drive during OS 8 installation. Using an older version of FWB HDT or the Apple driver on the SCSI drive that came with the SuperMac may so botch the hard drive structure that you will need to reformat it and reinstall everything. (As always, you should do a full backup before installing new drivers or updating your operating system.)
  • If your monitor is coming up green with extensions off or until the entire system is loaded, you can adjust the TwinTurbo card to change this behavior. Be sure the computer is off, disconnect the monitor, remove the cover, ground yourself by touching the power supply, the carefully remove the video card. Next to the video ports is a jumper marked JP4. Remove it from the two pins it's on and move it to the other end (it must still be on the middle pin). Reinsert the card, connect your monitor, and do a quick boot with extensions off (hold down the shift key while starting). If it's not green, shut down the computer, seal it up, and go back to work. If the green should persist, put the JP4 jumper back where it was. (According to Sync on Green Returns on Restart, the 8 MB card does not have a JP4 jumper.)
