What would be better for running OS X on a Wallstreet (yes, I know a

Unless the apps you are going to use have been optimized by Altivec, iTunes
for instance, go with the G3.  The extra 100Mhz will make more of a
difference in most operations.  Plus it runs cooler.

I have the wallstreet that has 2 megs vram. It now has L2 1 meg cache via G4 500 mhz Blue Chip accellerator. It does most everything that the daughters 700mhz G3 Ibook does. maybe not as eleganly. :)
