If I didn't have 256MB of RAM and a 12GB hard drive (which was
absolutely massive when I bought it in 1998), I would've gone nuts a
long time ago. My computer may be a bit on the slow side, but it's
*just* (only just) fast enough to run GNOME with apps like Konqueror
with anti-aliased fonts.
I hope you don't plan on abandoning GNU/Linux entirely. Remember,
Mandrake have a PPC Mac version in the works -- it's currently at the
beta 1 stage, so it should be out quite soon. It even has a nifty app
(Mac on Linux) that'll allow you to run Mac apps in Linux! If you're
interested, there's a good FAQ list for Mac on Linux at
http://www.ibrium.se/linux/overview.html.
