Info for a new mac owner

[Madrider]

Hi All,
I am new here and also new to a Mac. I have been a avid PC user for years, and have been wondering for years about a Mac. I just purchased a power mac off of ebay that has been upgraded some but not totaly. Here are the specs.

G4 Powermac
733MHZ/60GB HD/640MB RAM/ OS X.4.7 -- ATI RADEON 9000 PRO 128MB VIDEO CARD.--- LINKSYS PCI 2.4GHZ 54MB WIRELESS CARD.--- PCI EXTENTION PORT 2 FIREWIRE 400 + 3 USB2 PORTS.--- PIONEER DVD-RW DUAL LAYER DVR-109 INTERNAL.--- ZIP DRIVE 250 MB INTERNAL

What is the best thing I can do at this point to upgrade next? I feel the it would be the processor. What size or name brand do ya recomend?
How about memory? Is what have good enough for now? I dont do alot of heavy work with it. I like working with Photo shop and designing web pages.

So far I love a Mac and wish I would have made the change a long time ago. Just have to learn how to do things all over again. Not hard, just differant. I love it!!!

Thanks
Madrider

You can find a lot of pplaces for processor upgrades, I found this.

Ram, PC133 will do.
