Just for kicks I have one of these available to me, lets say hypothetically I buy a replacement battery, put 512mb of RAM, add a faster ATA133 drive in it and add a WIFI card, load it up with OS X 10.4.11, CS2 and Office 2008.
I've always wanted one of these machines, but I wonder if I'm wasting time and money. My main uses would be mostly note taking although the ability to download and review photos in the field would be somewhat handy.
There's just something that's cool about the laptop in an Armani suit otherwise known as the PowerBook G3.
- Just how tedious would it be for every day usage, for taking notes?
- What sort of problems will I have connecting to modern wireless networks?
- Is this feasible for every day usage or am I wasting my time and money?
