[QUOTE="MoltenLava, post: 41398"] Amen to that. My first Mac that I bought for my kid was 350MHz G4 PowerMac (Sawtooth). I bought it for $200 on eBay. It ran Panther surprisingly well! That machine is the reason I switched to Mac. The old machines are pretty snappy, I agree. What's surprising to me is that newer machines aren't much more faster than the old ones. i.e. PowerBook 1.3GHz vs Centrino 1.6GHz, Centrino is much more quicker. On the other hand, 350MHz G4 vs 800MHz Pentium III, G4 is much much more usable than Pentium. Kinda weird, eh? [/QUOTE]
