If you are serious about the Photoshop, I'd recommend going with a G4 upgrade as opposed to a G3. PS will take good advantage of the G4's Altivec engine. The only 'con' for what you want to do is that you will either have to spend more for a SCSI burner or purchase an PCI-IDE card that supports ATAPI (CD-ROMs/Burners) devices. I run OS 9.1 on my 9600 w G3/500 and it is extremely stable and quite fast for my home use. -- Mr. PopMan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - "Does anybody want to play a game of pinball?"
