[QUOTE="MacDude121, post: 1293394, member: 173432"] My iMac G3 500 MHz with 320MB of Ram and 16MB of Vram plays youtube videos fine. 240p + Camino is your friend. ;) To the OP, this seems like a pretty serious little project you're planning on doing. Especially the water cooling aspect of the mods. Like others have stated, the total outcome of this project might actually equal or slightly exceed the cost of a used Macbook, but hey, if this is going to be fun, a learning experience, and keep a PowerBook out of the landfill I say by all means go for it. I personally don't believe the PowerPC architecture is fully dead yet, these machines still have some useful life left in them. Looking forward to see how it goes. :D [/QUOTE]
