I'm considering this upgrade, can some recommend this(or advise against it). I don't really need the Altivec(I think) and I've already maxed out the memory and gotten a new disk. Are there any other upgrades I sould look at? I love my Pismo too much to trade her in if I don't really have to.

Unless your doing graphic intensive apps or video processing I wouldn't worry too much about altivec. . . anyway, I hear that the powerlogix's G3/900MHZ processor cards, ironic though it may seem, is actually faster than the G4/500MHZ according to some bench test. check out this link:
