Hey guys, I'm new to macs but wanted to get one after a friend of mine let me try out his new macbook pro. It was really cool, but the price wasn't! So my friend told me to look for an older mac in good working condition and I did. I'm in between an emac, an imac g4 (bubble) and a g4 quicksilver. All cost $100 but they don't all come with the same stuff and obviously they have different specs.
here they are (this is all the owner's said in the descriptions):
emac: Manufacturer: Apple
Model: A1002
Color: White
Specifications
Screen Size: 16"
Drive Type: CD-RW/DVD-ROM
Hard Disk Capacity: 37.14 GB
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.3.9
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.1)
Number of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.25 GHz
L2 Cache: 512 KB
Memory: 256 MB DDR SDRAM
Bus Speed: 167 MHz
Boot ROM Version: 4.8.2fl
g4 quicksilver is a 933mhz with 640mb ram expandable to 1.5 gb. has a nvidia geforce dual display adapter with vga and adc connections. two 40 gb hard drive are installed. DVD burner. has os x 10.4 fully updated and clean. i life is installed, this includes i movie, i dvd, garage band, i tunes, and i photo. also includes microsoft keyboard and optical mouse, power cable, and usb to ps/2 adaptor. No monitor
imac g4 (bubble) 6-7 yrs old, 80g hard drive, dvd burner, runs 10.1.4, comes with old keyboard and mouse. I was kind of worried when the owner said that they used it mainly to download music off of limewire.
So what do you guys think? Each one is $100. Which one is the best or most worth the money?
