I'm thinking a G4 aluminum around 1GHz would do the trick and run
Leopard (so she could have time machine) but I'm not sure about
classic applications in OSX 5.
Classic is gone in 10.5, probably the best solution is to find modern
replacements for those OS 9 apps, and move her to an early Intel system. What
are they?
True there is no Classic in 10.5 but if your looking to have both
Sheepshaver is a great replacement
