I recnetly got a great deal on a 400 MHz Pismo with a bad battery and as it turns out a bad HD. I've upgraded to a Hitachi 40 GB HD and added an Airport Card and couldn't be happier with this Mac, except for the 8 MB Video limit.
Seems that back in the day of the the Performa Macs I read that the RAM you got was partially used for video - so you really didn't have 32 MB (or whatever) available for (non-video) memory. Fast forward to today ... My Pismo has 576 MB RAM, is there a compelling reason that a clever person couldn't figure out a way to use some of that for video? Like I said in the subject "Naive". I await the flames ... ;-) Barry -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
