Don't bother upgrading your blue and white or beige G3 anymore. It is much more cost efficient to upgrade to a G4 with an AGP slot. Not only will the CPU be faster than the stock one in your G3 machine but you'll have access to more powerful video cards and a faster system bus. G4's also run Tiger better as the desktop will utilize Altivec. The G4 AGP machines can also run Leopard without having to do a lot of hacking to get it to work.
