[QUOTE="mmoy, post: 195076, member: 9872"] You'll be pretty disappointed with an older machine coming from a 3200+. I have a 3200+ notebook with w GB of RAM and 180 GB of disk space and it creams my PowerMac G5 1.8 Ghz with 1 GB of Ram in performance. Your best bet would be to install Mac OSX on your current notebook if you can convince Apple to sell you such a license. I'm happy with the PowerMac and work on making it faster from time to time but it is the family desktop and I do my real work on the AMD notebook. The PowerMac is fine for iTunes and okay for browsing. [/QUOTE]
