Cube-OSX is a port of the open source Cube3D first person shooter to Mac OS X. Currently everything works (hopefully) except for networking. It gets pretty good performace: about 35-70fps on a 500MHz G4 with Radeon 7000 PCI video card and about 200-400fps on a Dual 2.0GHz G5 with Radeon 9600. This free application can be installed on Mac OS X 10.6 or later. The most popular versions among ReadCube for Mac users are 2.0, 1.2 and 1.1. The latest installation package takes up 1.8 MB on disk. The common filename for the program's installer is readcube.dmg. GarageBand is a fully equipped music creation studio right inside your Mac — with a complete sound library that includes instruments, presets for guitar and voice, and an incredible selection of session drummers and percussionists.

macOS Big Sur elevates the most advanced desktop operating system in the world to a new level of power and beauty. Experience Mac to the fullest with a refined new design. Enjoy the biggest Safari update ever. Discover new features for Maps and Messages. Get even more transparency around your privacy.

Chances are, your Mac can run macOS Big Sur

I had a Cube for over 10 years. In fact, I just sold it on eBay. I had run everything from Mac OS 9.1 through Mac OS X 10.5.8 on it. Any of the last three flavors it is able to use (10.3, 10.4, 10.5) will work. We consider the Cube a Limited Mac. You should have the most recent firmware installed in your Power Mac G4. The newest version for the Power Mac G4 Cube is Power Mac G4 Cube Firmware Update 4.1.9, which is only for the Cube. To install this firmware update, you must boot into Mac OS 9.1-9.2.2 from a writable partition.

This is the fourth in a series of articles showing how Adam Rosen uses four vintage Macs to read, recover, convert, transfer, and return files to his clients. Today he shares how he uses his Power Mac G4 Cube running OS X 10.4 Tiger.

The Power Mac G4 was one of Apple’s most successful and longest-running series of machines. Spanning the transition from Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X and providing good value for the money, G4-based systems are still in use more than 15 years after the architecture debuted.

Yet not all models were smash hits on arrival. Rounding out my set of vintage Mac workhorses is one of the most iconic designs – and flops – in Macintosh history.

Steve Jobs loved cube-shaped computers. He first designed one for NeXT, a big black box that was an aesthetic marvel but a commercial failure. His second attempt for Apple fared similarly, but it has obtained collector status due to the beauty and novelty of the design.

The Power Mac G4 Cube is 8″ tall and passively cooled (like the slot-loading G3 iMacs) for nearly silent operation – fans are a longstanding peeve of Steve Jobs. However, limited expansion capability and a premium price led to slow sales as users felt bang for the buck was lacking. The Cube was discounted several times, then finally discontinued after a one-year run.

Apple got the small headless Mac tradeoff right a few years later with the Mac mini, itself one-third the size of the Cube with more power at a lower cost.

Till Cube Mac Os Catalina

The Vintage Mac Museum Cube runs Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger and serves as the central file server for Oakbog and the Museum. Tiger is a good OS to use for a mixed-generation fileserver of this kind: Its version of AppleShare can communicate with versions of the Mac OS from System 7.5.3 through Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard!

You need to enable File Sharing on the Tiger-based system and then assign it a static IP address on your network. Newer Macs see the share via Bonjour, and older Macs can access things using AppleShare IP by entering the server’s address in the Chooser. Both read and write access is supported.

Till Cube Mac Os X

The Cube contains my repository of pre-OS X Classic Mac software, over 7 GB worth of vintage word processors, graphics programs, database software, and utilities. Some of this is installed on the other workhorse machines – the Mac Plus, Quadra 840av, and WallStreet PowerBook – with the remainder accessible when needed. The Cube also contains a shared folder within which I copy the elements for file transfer and conversion work – original files, intermediate stages, and final versions.

With this set of machines I can read and copy files from nearly any Mac generation and common storage format – floppy disk, hard drive, Zip and Jaz, MO cartridges, etc. Really old files from the Mac Plus get relayed to the Quadra via LocalTalk and from there to the Cube via ethernet. The WallStreet handles most of the file conversions, and once work is completed, files can be copied to my Mac Pro to burn to CD or be left on the Cube for direct access via FTP.

This last capability of the Lucite Wonder is handled by Rumpus FTP server software, which provides both FTP and HTTP (web based) access to files for upload and download. I have a static IP address on the internet and a domain name registered for the server. This lets me get from the Mac Plus to the Internet in only two hops – not bad at all!

Who says there’s no life left in older machines?
