Um, something else you may want to look at: is it really worth putting money
into a 6500 box?

Don't get me wrong: I know what it's like buying hardware when the funds are
low, and the hos are slow.

It's just that if it's going to be awhile before you can upgrade, you may
want to take a look at the possibility of buying a box with more upgrade
potential before you start putting money into it.

I picked up my 9600 box for about $50 in 2003.  With the debut of the Mac
mini, used Mac prices should be coming down a lot and you can prolly do even
better.

I guess the words "needs some major upgrading" really got my attention...


Best,

James
