Hands down get the 8558 as it is a much more upgradeable machine, will hold
loads more RAM, has 3 PCI slots for things like an IDE, or SCSI card USB,
firewire, second monitor........

You can also get a G3 upgrade for it for less $$$ than the 6360, but be
forewarned, getting inside the case of the 8550 to add RAM is a job in it's
self.
