Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Speaking of which
A friend told me that I could get an older model (G3) that ran OS-X for about $750. Any opinion about whether that's powerful enuf? And is that a good price?
New How fast a G3?
Mine's a 500Mhz, and it's OK. I'd strongly recommend >256 MB RAM though.
John. Busy lad.
New 933MHz G4/256MB here
Seems sprightly enough.

New Little iBook starts at $1099
For the nominal increase you get a lot more computer. I'd value a 500 MHz G3 w/Firewire (w/o Firewire I'd skip it) and Airport card at $500.

It'd be a fine casual user machine. (My wife has one she uses daily)

For development (particularly Java) it'll make you want to slit your wrists.




Java is a joke, only it's not funny.

New Heh.

Developing in Java alone makes me want to do that.
New check Low End Mac

This week's standout deals (marked in bold below):
  • used 12"/300 CD-ROM, $390, MegaMacs
  • used 12"/366 CD-ROM, $480, MegaMacs
  • used 12"/600 CD-ROM, $650, PowerBook Guy
  • new 12"/800 CD-ROM, $700, Club Mac
there's more than that listed, those are what they show as the best deals. I'm using an older Blue & White PowerMac(minitower) that's got a G3 @ 450MHz w/288MB. Works very well with OS X. I am planning to upgrade the CPU in the near future though as I'd like to use iChat AV for video conferencing. I'm already using it for IM and audio, but the video conferencing needs a 600MHz G3, or any speed G4 or G5.
