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 elegantly. :)
Exactly. That's what I was trying to get across by comparing my Ti to my
friends Pismo. 'Elegantly' is a much nicer way to put it. :) The good thing
is Tom and Lisa now know there is a third option. 500MHz G4.
What are you running the display at? 800x600 millions or 1024x768 thousands.
1024x780>thousands. I don't have the "option" in display prefs for
"millions" at 800x600.
