I have a 9600/350 and a B&W G3/450. I use the 9600 as my main
machine. It has 256mb of ram, two 4 gig. hd's and a 20 gig. ide drive
hooked to a Promax card, internal DAT drive, Zip, USB card, Voodoo 5
and an external burner hooked to an Adaptec 2930. I can still stack
another hd on the bottom plate and only loose one slot. I play Diablo
II and the expansion with no problem. My G3 has 384mb ram and the 9
gig. ultra scsi drive. It is more than capable, but I've done so much
to the 9600 that I'm in no hurry to set it aside.
