[QUOTE="Audio.Trench, post: 1139633, member: 13155"] Like you, Debille, I'm a sucker for tricking out old hardware.. I've actually decided to sell mine, as I've found a MDD dual 1.25ghz FW800 for $195. I know I can get $200+ easily in my area (not meaning to rip someone off), so I'm not technically spending any money on it, just swapping. Plus, the 9800 Pro I just ordered will play nicely with the duals making me able to run 10.5, finally. I'll also be able to run Amplitube3 in cooperation with Ableton (yay, more than 2 tracks simultaneously AND dual CPU support!). Halo will be able to be crammed into my downtime and some light Illustrator work to resume the design of my merchandise. I'll just overall be a [i]lot[/i] more productive. I'm pretty excited, I gotta say! Here's my total "G4 Project" worth: G4 QS 733mmhz - $25 ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128mb Mac Edition - $93.42 shipped G4 MDD dual 1.25ghz FW800 - essentially free, once the QS sells --- Total: $118.42 CDN I think that's pretty decent for what it'll be in the end. :) [/QUOTE]
