I may get a good deal on a lamp style g4 700 mhz imac. Would it be a BIG improvement over my g3 600mhz imac?

Is that a good choice of imac?

Personally, I don't like the "lamp style" iMacs. The goose necks break too easily and I don't feel the LCD screens are as sharp as the old CRTs.

The processor speed and its generation (g3 to g4) will be noticable, but I don't know that it will really be a spectacular difference unless you use an altavec optimized app, such as Photoshop. G4 = G3 scalar core plus the Altavec vector/floating point engine.

FWIW,
