I just wanted to pass my excitement along to those who would appreciate it. I came across a barely used G4-500 Mhz tower that a co-worker had sitting around her house. I bought it off her for $600 and when I got it, it still had the manufacturers protective stickers on it. I opened up the inside and it was absolutely spotless. I put an additional 256MB of RAM in it to bump it up to 512 and the thing runs so smoothly right now. So far, all I have done is up the OS to 9.2.2 (Not a huge fan of OS X) but I have a lot more plans to supe this thing up.Sounds like you have gotten a great machine. Am happy for you.
This thing has been so much fun to play with and I have only had it for one night. Cannot wait to keep going on. Thanks for listening to my excitement, folks.

I too bought a previously owned Mac recently - a G3/333 MT for 1/6 of the price you paid for yours.
I was pleasantly surprised to find a SCSI-2 card in the box after I opened it.
Aren't you glad Mac exists? Can't imagine anyone getting excited over a used Wintel machine.
Enjoy.
