What os is on it now? what is the processor speed? my thought is this. if you don't have 10.4 on it no, get a BNIB retail copy of os x 10.4.6 (about 80 bucks on ebay) and then get a superdrive (under 100 bucks) to replace the cd drive. ram is fine as is. you can add a big hard drive for like 60 bucks if you want one. you should be set for years for about 200 bucks.
