Chris, I'm from Toronto and I have the same machine. I just put a combo USB/Firewire card and maxed out the memory. While I was shopping around for cards I went to a few of my favourite used Mac stores in the city and came across G4's for under $1000 (monitor out). Two good stores here (if just to check the price of used): Carbon Computing http://www.carbonation.com/ CPUsed http://www.cpused.com In Manitoba - Mantek Services http://www.mantek.mb.ca If you have any questions about the machine, email me directly.
