Spend the extra money for a higher end model. Id say maybe, 400Mhz at least. It's WAY more worth it, you can run OSX on 400Mhz with alot more success than a 233. The 233 makes a great box for YDL tho.

Also, your gonna wanna score some more RAM. Buy it separete.

I prefer Linux over BSD, because it just loves me. But yea, i thought id need a higher model, I want to try OS-X of cource (dont we all). If i have the money i will get a G4, or maybe those $999 laptops.

Maybe a G3.

Yea, ill see my mum or dad for money (borrowing)

I found this one:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2067607795 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2067607795)

How much should i bid if i was to buy the second one you posted?

Post by: psyjax on 9 November 2002, 07:27
I woulden't go over $500 for the one I posted. $450, hell maybe $550 (If you really REALLY gotta have it). That's a good buy.

The G4 400 you posted is nice, but for that price you could prolly score a dual 500Mhz.

Try uBid.com, and smalldog.com. see what kind of prices they got.

Out for food be back in 40Mins  :D

I just bought a 400 Mhz g3 for $304!  Its from the same guy as the first link psyjax posted, and hes from the same town as me so I dont have to mess with fedex or anything.  I'll be picking it up monday morning, im interested to see how os x will run on it.  Im gonna set it up as a server to host the sk8mafia site and ftp so my friends can transfer footy without having to come to my house.  When I get some more cash im probably gonna buy a processor upgrade from powerlogix.
