[QUOTE="stewart, post: 95379"] Erm... I've got another question, I have since found a Dual 450 Sawtooth on ebay and I was wondering what sort of life this machien has in terms of Tiger and how upgradable it is (new graphics cards gonna be needed as its an ATI Rage 128Pro with only 16Mb VRAM. It only has a Zip Drive and a DVD ROM drive (no burner at all although I have an external USB2 DVD burner so its not really an issue). It has 2Gb of RAM installed and includes both OSX and OS9. My main concern with this machine is as to just how much life is left in it? And would it be any faster than the Quicksilver I previously mentioned? Many thanks, Stew Edit: It's not a sawtooth, its this one here: [url]http://everymac.com/systems/apple/powermac_g4/stats/powermac_g4_450_dp.html[/url] also which graphics card would be a good upgrade for the machine?
