What's worse is that I did not progressively purchase all of these macs! I bought a bunch of 540c laptops and caught the mac bug! I then traded an Atari 2600 w/ some games for the 6500. I bought the B&W case and REV. 2 LogicBoard from ebay and I intended to slowly build it up, but before I could my main PC broke for the last time, so I bought a eMac as a suitable substitute. I ended up finishing the B&W and now I'm stuck with these three macs with nothing to do with them aside from browse the web...
I don't do work on them, most of my work, is done at work, on PCs. I have a bunch of PCs at home, just in case...
anyways...

I don't want to sound like a Kiljoy, but that's a waste of a good Mac.
I have a 6500/225 it runs 9.2.2 you know what I use it for? A MSN messenger server!!!
My eMac, I use it for browsing the web, checking e-mail, and the occasional typing things up.
You could have saved yourself a packet if you'd put a 550MHz G4 in that B&W and some extra RAM, without degrading your user experience. I only have a G4/500 in my B&W and it does all my Photoshop/Illustrator/Dreamweaver work, of course the 1GB of RAM helps, but even that doesn't cost the earth.
