[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 828393, member: 8287"] I second the Mac Mini. If you can spring for an Intel Mini instead of a G4 mini you will be able to run the OS and apps even when things get upgraded for sometime to come. To get a G4 that will run leopard will cost a bit and the bit extra for a Mini would be worth it so you will not be out of date really fast. The Powermac G4 in your URL will run 10.4 Tiger well enough for what you want but like Van said, newer versions of software need 10.5 Leopard and that will not even install on that system. [/QUOTE]
