How do you think that G3/233 would run the newest OSX (if at all) if it was maxed out in ram? My girls want a computer and I would love to get a couple cheap macs...maybe even the old iMacs that were colored monitors. They would want to mostly play mp3's and surf the net. cb |

I don't think the G3s that didn't have onboard USB are supported by OSX. I could be wrong. -S |

Any G3 desktop you get will have an ATI9200 PCI card as the MAX video card for it. The Mac Mini comes with that built in, plus has a much better processor, Combo drive, and a lot bigger hard drive. If you do get an iMac, I'd try to get one of the DV models. They had a DVD drives, rather than the CD-ROM drives that most of the older ones had. For the price though it would be hard to beat the Mac Mini with an iMac. |
