The G3 was an upgrade from the old PowerTower with a G3 card -- I refuse to pay more than $300 for what amounts to an appliance/toy. Lightening got both serial ports, so I couldn't get on line or print. Else it still works great. I bought a parts Wallstreet 300 MHz laptop last year to

Safari 2.1 -- requires OS 10.3 or better. I don't have it, and could only use it on the Wallstreet anyway -- my Beige G3 is quite cranky enough as it is, I don't want to risk the workaround to get 10.3 or 10.4 installed on it. Peter
