Macs for sell

Anyone have a 500 MHz G4 (a G3 maybe) that they are planning to sell anytime soon? I don't know how much I'll have in a few months but I am certainly interested

What i'm looking for:
500 MHz G4
any hard drive size
at least 256 MB of RAM
be able to run Mac OS X.1.3 easily (for basic stuff like net surfing and website creation and possibly a bit of imovie use)

that's all i need and i thought that if i could buy from anyone, i'd buy from a member at this site!

I have a 400 MHz B&W rev2 G3, not quite what you were looking for, but maybe close enough?

Runs 10.1.4 great. It is plenty adequate for surfing and web editing. Probably fine for light imovie use.

I was thinking about selling it sometime between now and a few months from now.

E-mail me if you are at all interested:

Upgrade Beige g3

Yes, it sure can.

I've been running OS X for about a year.

The upgraded processor is a g4/400. I didn't know the jumper combination to set it for 400. I tried a combination from a document on the XLR8 Your mac site last year and I was able to get it working very well @ 466 MHZ and running OS X or OS 9.2.

The processor alone runs approx. $150.00. One went on ebay for 199.99 the other day.
