The bottom line is when the value of the machine you own plus the cost
of the necessary upgrades comes to more than the price of a better
computer you have reached the point where you should sell the current
machine and move to a new one. That's about how I got to having my G3 -
sadly I learnt this the hard way and only got �260 for a machine that
cost in excess of �600 to build up. If I did it again I'd just buy the
G3 B&W straight off.
