I am thinking of going from my MDD 2x1GHz with 4 drives and switching to a 12" *Book with AirPort and using a B&W with an ATA card for my drives.
I have asked some specific questions before, but this topic concerns the setup choice as a whole, so any opinions or suggestions are appreciated. :o)
The B&W would have around 1GB of RAM, one main OS drive and four 120GB disks connected to a PCI card and just be on all the time, possibly also used as a Carracho server and eventually a web server (when I get time).
I feel that the MDD 2x1GHz is overkill (and financially silly) as well as limited as I have to sit in the study, the *Book (haven't decided between iBook or AlBook) will allow full mobility.
B&W G3 300 rev. 1 (the ATA card solves the IDE bug) and I can use it in OS 9 to scan on my old (but top end) AGFA scanner.
Any thoughts ?
Larry
