Maybe it marks me as getting old, but it feels really weird to call a G4 tower a "fossil". I'm just sayin'.
And as far as "computing on the cheap" goes, I'm pretty happy with picking up a G4/500 with half a gig of RAM, a Combo Drive, and a Zip drive for just under $75, shipping included...

I've been using a Ti powerbook G4 at work for years with no issues.
Well, one issue... the coating on the titanium chips off the wristwrest area.
Hey Tam,
I read your other blogs, and just saw this one. How easy(and cheap) is it to convert from Win to Mac? I currently use XP on a box cobbled together from hand me down parts from friends who have money for "upgrades" .
I've been thinking about experimenting with Macs, something portable/laptopish, but don't want to invest a lot of money for something I may not go any further with.
Any recommendations(and expected prices) for something that would help give me a feel for Macs without breaking the bank? I have no problem with used or refurbished equipment.
To be honest I haven't really looked yet, seeing this blog of yours has just triggered a response to an idea I've been kicking around for a year or more....
Thanks, and love all the blogs...

That's a good question!
See next post. (And thanks for the post idea!)
