[QUOTE="vanderkerkoff, post: 661970, member: 56819"] Hello all Juan, cheers for replying, but I really don't fancy turning my 1300 pounds worth of investment into a machine I can run ubuntu on. I can buy that type of machine for roughly 140 pounds. I do like ubuntu, I use it as Gutsy Gibbon on a number of servers. Soulwar, that might well be the best option Louishen, if you have G4 PowerPC then there are a large number of software titles out there for you already. But it's going to decline if you want to keep up to date. Other software developers are not building software installs for powerpc macs any more, well definately not for G5 macs anyway. Thanks for all your replies, the hammer option is coming second now to sell it to someone else. Although I find it hard to believe anyone would want one, if they knew all the cons of having one.
