Apple Can I upgrade my PowerMac?

Hey all,

I've just been offered a B+W PowerMac G3 400MHz, with 128Mb ram. I wanna install Tiger on it, but i need to at least get another 128mb of ram before this is possible. Is this worthwhile, and is there anything else anyone would recommend to make tiger run a bit smoother? I've got a budget of about a hundred quid.

I assume you can easily expand the memory. Fairly cheap aswell.
Although I think Tiger will have a hard time running smoothly on it. 400Mhz G3 isn't that much of a powermachine.

Even if you don't get tiger on it. still keep it! Its nice to collect them!

i think you can actually get a cpu upgrade to a g4 but i dont know how much it would cost

 

Take a look at Accelerate Your Mac. It's a good resource for upgrading macs.

edit: this page specifically has lot's of g3 info.

 

How much are you paying for it? Add the cost of ram and then make the decisions.

 

Getting it for free, just need to buy the ram.
