Re: Oldest PowerMac G4 to buy?

Primary uses are email and browsing with occasional iTunes, iPhoto and occasional light Photoshop.
You could even do all that on a G3.  So any G4 should be fine.

I know...I do it now on a B&W G3 450. It works great. I really just want to move to AGP graphics and get a more stable platform; the B&W locks up on me occasionally, my TiBook never does.
And I don't want to spend more time troubleshooting a potential hardware problem that in the end might be design-related, not something I could fix.
Seems like I remember there are problems with the Sawtooth and maybe the GigE versions. I'm interested if that's true and if there are other known issues with the older Macs.

| Check with prwood - he got a Sawtooth from Mac of All Trades and he seems to be happy. And if I recall the video problem with the Sawtooths has been cleared up with the release of 10.3.2. |
