From my upgraded B&W - OEM 450Mhz card.

I'll even throw in slow-boat shipping as long as it's used for a DC proj.

Don't think FreeDC has any other B&W owners but it's worth a post.

Is it a card or a zip module?

It's a ZIF card :D

Powerlogix says it should work on Beige and B&W Macintosh's

Guru..so she has a Yikes G4? http://www.lowendmac.com/ppc/g4.shtml The Yikes model was also PCI based but had a G4 chip but same mobo as the B&W G3 model. Otherwise, a Blue & White case denotes a G3 processor. http://www.lowendmac.com/ppc/g3c.shtml

Difference between G3 and G4 is Altivec instruction set which not many programs use.
