I have an ancient 600 Mhz G3 iMac SE -- slot-load -- that I have been using as an iTunes server for quite some time. (It was , also, just fine for light web browsing.) Unfortunately, the CRT/power supply has just gone kaput.
For $40, I have been able to purchase a working 500 Mhz iMac but, aside from a working CRT, I think it has a tic less performance across the board. Is the extra speed worth me taking everything apart to create a true Franken G3 or should I just pull the harddrive and 1G of RAM from the first machine, put it all in the slower chassis, and call it good? At BEST I'm going to get a running 600 Mhz G3, with 1G of RAM, running 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.1, which would be great with me. If the worst isn't a noticeable difference...
