- PowerMac G4 400MHz 896MB RAM WOOHOO
Hi All,
Recently I acquired an old Powermac G4 running at 400Mhz and a 896MB of RAM. It has 10.4.11 installed and can barely churn out a decent tabbed web-browsing session. So before I list this puppy on eBay and buy a newer G4, what are the things I can do with such an old and slow machine? I have a pretty good file server already running on my network (freeNAS) , and I don't play legacy mac games. I do all my office work on a laptop and watch all my media on an htpc. So I guess what I am asking is for some suggestions (ANY suggestion) as to what to do with this rotten apple. Thanks All
