Ron, Which clear monitor did it come with? Was it a flat screen? If so, does it have a white frame? And how many inches is it? (diagonal viewable area)...this has a lot of bearing as to the price.
As for Hard Drive: I've had the best experience with IBM hard drives. They're fast and inexpensive and I don't think I'd get one from anywhere else...IBM is just a well-run company, and I trust them. go to www.macsales.com Then to hard drives, then IDE/ATA/Ultra DMA. They have great deals and they're a good copany as well (61.49GB IBM Deskstar 60GXP 7200rpm for 174.95) I've heard that people with older macs who'v upgraded to nice new large 7200rpm drives have noticed speed increases. The drive in your machine is most certainly 5400rpm, so you may notice some difference...but I really couldn't tell you for sure. You can get the G4 466 with cd-rw, 30GB hard drive, 640mb ram, etc. at www.maczone.com for $1,294.98 ...just so everyone knows...it's a pretty sweet deal. on 10/10/01 8:03 PM, Ron Ward at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I think I jsut got a great deal on a Mac G-4 400mghz AGP Power PC.
