If you find the upgrade really cheap (and I mean<$100 cheap), go for

Depends on how much you like old macs IMHO.
Probably quite true (grin). This G4 Sawtooth hasn't given me any
headaches worth mentioning in the short time I've had it (beyond the
ones I induced myself during the "I didn't know any better" phase), I
just thought I'd see what my options were. I may go the
replace-the-entire-machine route, but I **still** want to investigate
the "what are my physical options for CPU upgrade" route just for my own
knowledge first. I'm infinitely curious :) And who knows, maybe an 800
mhz CPU is available for next to dirt on one of the swap lists :) That
would still put me in a better place than the Sawtooth is in now, and I
wouldn't have another machine cluttering up my place for a while :)
This has been a most interesting thread so far :)
Thanks,
Anna
