I always advise people to avoid the Quicksilver. They seem to be the ones that suffer dead power supply problem. Particularly the 733mhz like I have which is now a door stop. Just go on ebay and see how many you find described as: "parts only" or "won't power up" or "powers up then shuts down"

I'd go for the MDD every time, but if you have to get the QS, go for 900mhz and above.

just my 2p worth.

After adding up the dollars to put this MDD together, I'm wondering what the best quicksilver would be? I'm looking at 800mhz systems on ebay for around 100 dollars? sure they're only 800mhz single processor systems, but I can upgrade it later can't I? I just need a really good tiger/os9 machine for odds and ends.... what's the best q-silver to get? Jeff
