I think I can manage the money for either a : Sonnet Encore/ZIF G4/700MHz w/1024k 3:1 Backside Cache. or a PowerLogix PowerForce G3/1GHz (1000MHz) ZIF with 1024K 1:1(1000Mhz) L2 On-Chip Cache for the Power Mac G3 Beige I am leaning for the G3 and staying with OS9 for now. Then saving up for a G5 when the bugs are worked out and the price comes down.
