[QUOTE="stewart, post: 94782"] Hello all, A potential switcher here :) I am looking around on ebay here in the UK and have noticed a few Macs which look like a fairly good bargin, there is a Quicklsilver G4 733Mhz with 384Mb RAM and also a G4 400Mhz with 1.25Gb RAM. My question really is as to which one I am better off buying, I intend to use it to replace my current desktop (2.2Ghz P4 with 512Mb RAM). I wont be doing any gaming on the machine and the most resource hungry app I'll be using is Photoshop and maybe a bit of iMovie. Thanks, Stew Edit: I meant to say that I have a 160Gb IDE hard drive I'd liket o use in the mac as well, will this be an issue? I know older PC's cant support more than 137Gb HDs with a BIOS update do Macs have this problem? [/QUOTE]
