It the cloud services
use current web standards and require no additional stuff which
only exists in more modern versions of Mac OS X they should be
usable.

But your answer is difficult to make out. I presume "It" should be "If". What is stuff? What is it additional to? And do you mean that recent OSs (more modern versions of Mac OS X) SHOULD enable cloud services to work? Well, yes, but oharamj is buying a G4, or was, so he would need tenfourfox, hence his question. If that isn't what you meant, good, but . .. what DID you mean?</p>
<p>And what does "Cameron?" mean?</p></div>Nick Barnetttag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/359268472017-06-04T05:05:18Z2017-06-04T05:05:18ZWill TenFourFox allow G4 to use cloud services?<div><p>It means he's asking my more or less official answer, and the more or less official answer is a definite maybe.</p>
<p>If the service only requires HTML5 and JavaScript, the odds are pretty good it will work just fine (perhaps slowly, but fine). Most Google services work, for example. iCloud generally works, though most of our systems aren't fast enough to run it effectively.</p>
<p>There are extensions that will let you manage the SQLite databases in TenFourFox, though these add-ons are (like all addons) supported "best effort." If you're looking for something to generally manage SQLite databases, though, I don't know of one for PowerPC offhand.</p>
<p>The G4 can certainly VNC to other systems; I do it all the time from my iMac G4. A tool like Chicken of the Sea (or its followon, "Chicken") will work fine and is free. However, this board is limited to TenFourFox support, so you're on your own for those.</p></div>Cameron Kaiser
