Is it possible to put a USB PCI card into a 7100?

Roadguy. Hello. No. It has no PCI Slots.

It has what the call NuBus slots.

Old macs are cheap. Beige G3s can be had for $100.

sorry I knew that.  Let me re-phrase.  Is there a USB card that will work for a 7100.  Yes I know older Macs are cheap.  I have 6 in sitting in a closet.  I have a family memember that is using a 7100.  They have a digital camera that they would like to hook up to it to download pics for ebay.

Any help here?

I'm going to guess no since it is quite an old machine.

thanks

No. PCI Cards are the only option.

There are no Nu Bus or other USB Cards.
