Not wanting to foresake this list altogether but you sound like you need a real G3 system. See how cheap you can get a 300MHz G3 Tower and OS X and maybe a Radeon PCI card. Or if you have a a good wad off moola (about $550 - $600) for long term investment in an new Mac get a new world machine, a B&W G3 (pref. 450MHz) or a G4 Sawtooth (400-550MHz). I know it is cheaper to get a 9x00 and PCI/CPU upgrade cards (o is it - in the long run I say no) but OS X is getting to be the standard Mac system now (although even by the end of 2003 Apple still thinks a large percentage of people will still be using Classic in one form or another) and the need to upgrade for it is ever present. You can do OS X easily on a 6-slot 9x00 now but what about 10.2, what about 10.5 and beyond. Eventually it'll stop being possible. That time will come much later if you have new world hardware. -- -- Mark Benson Any spelling errors are attributed to PEBKAC
