I'm trying to refurbish a bunch of old eMacs and iMac G4s for a local charity and was wondering if OSX 10.4 can be upgraded? I could install Linux for PPC instead but these machines adjust the display settings through the software and not through any external means. Anyone know? Thanks.
Can OSX 10.4 be upgraded?

OS 10.4 can be "updated" to OS 10.4.11 for free. Depending on the cpu speeds of the computers (iMac G4's and eMac G4's)...they could be "upgraded" to OS 10.5.
But OS 10.5 may not run super fast...and an install disk will cost you (each machine) $80-$100 on e-Bay.
