To the best of my knowledge, the drivers shipped by Sonnet & XLR8
work just fine, and MacOS X works as well on their upgrade cards as
it does on the Apple original G3 & G4 hardware.

A G4 tower or a B&W G3 shouldn't need any kind of CPU upgrade in
order to run MacOS X. You might need more RAM, or a compatible video
card, and you might *want* a faster CPU, but that shouldn't be
necessary.
