just get the Blue G3, which should access all 512MB memory, plus has an extra PCI
slot, a fast video PCI slot, and a 100MHz bus?
While Beige G3 can run OSX (many people on this list do) if you can make the B&W work financially? Just the faster bus alone makes it a better candidate. Add the easy expandability and easy case access and it's no contest to me.
Good luck,
