I am starting to think about getting a newer Mac than my current G3 Beige MiniTower OS 9 (dual HD, CD, ZIP, SCSI Scanner, LaserWriter Pro 630, Cannon s520 InkJet)

Of course I could buy one of the new models, an eMac, an iMac, or a G5 but that could be a lot of cash and require a lot of s/w upgrades (mine are of the OS8 vintage). A used iMac or G4 seems more appropriate.

Can some one tell me which are the latest models that will run OS9 applications (besides Panther) and all that older s/w? (to save or defer the cost of s/w upgrades)?

Can you tell me the latest models that can take a SCSI card (so I can keep some of my old peripherals running)?

All but the last models of G4 towers. In fact IIRC, Apple is now shipping the last G4 tower with OS 9 capability.
