Hello, I'm new to the list here. I have a Beige G3/266Mhz with 320 megs ram and I'd like to upgrade it to a G4. I've heard that it can be upgraded to a G4/500 but the problem for running certain programs is that it lacks a USB port. My model also doesn't have an internal modem. My mac tech thinks it's a waste of time and money to do an upgrade, but I'm wondering. It's a solid machine other than the fact that it can't run some of the newer software that requires G4.
Does anyone here have any experience doing this and could offer either ideas or resources for doing so? Other than installing more memory and a clock battery once, I've never done the work inside a machine, but since the only other option seems to be to sell it on Ebay for $25, I figure it's worth a try! I also have 2 imacs one a G3/233 and the other a G3/350. Would I be smarter to try and upgrade one of those rather than the beige? Thanks so much!
