Reporting back, in case anyone's interested. I wrote yesterday that I had
found a Seagate 200Gb external FireWire/USB2 drive for $119 (after a $50
rebate-- Outpost.com item number 4015532).

I ordered it, received it today. The box says it's compatible with Mac OS
8.6 and the manual says it's compatible with Mac OS 9, but I couldn't
actually reformat the drive (necessary, since it's factory-formatted FAT32)
using my OS 9.1 G3. No problem for me, I just used my OSX iBook, which took
just a couple of minutes, but this could be a problem for others.

Except for that, it's a sweet machine!
