I've been monitoring discussions on Apple's OS progression and the changes in hardware requirements.
Since I'm running a Mini G4, I feel I'm rapidly receding into antiquity. The main issues are CPU speed and the ever increasing number of cool 10.5+ only apps. I've lived with the speed thing because my WiFi ISP speed has been limited. However, now they've increased their bandwidth, so I can get up to more commonly reasonable internet speeds. Here's my OS/software criteria: **Accept that Classic is no longer an option (run separate machine if necessary) **Want to retain PPC apps for now, so need Rosetta and apparently can only max at 10.5 OS **Cannot afford to change/upgrade my HDs to GUID. **Would like best video card/system possible ** Assume a Mini is most affordable option So, I'm hoping for some advise or direction on which generation of Mini would/could maximize my options. I understand that this might be a Mini forum topic, and happy to migrate if necessary.
