Jeesh! Now you've upset my iBook even more - it's an 18 month old model
and packing its bags to head for the retirement home!

To be honest, I haven't the room to add another Mac, even the mini once
you include the monitor, etc. And while there's no doubt that for most of
the stuff I do (home and work-related) it would be a better machine, I
don't really need it because the current stuff works fine (apart from
games :-)).

Disk space and SCSI cards for backup drives, for example, I agree. But
processor and graphics card upgrades for the B&W aren't looking such good
value for money when for the same price you can get a machine with a
faster G4 processor and a 9200 (AGP, not PCI) graphics chipset. Hence my
thinking that the B&W might end up a file server and eventually the iMac
get swapped for a Mac mini.
