Apple has introduced new G4 Towers.
So I called Kate, got the specs, and we're getting two. One for her, one for me.
Not the new dual 1GHz, alas. Too expensive for our budget. But the 933MHz, which comes with the SuperDrive. I want to be able to burn CDs without having to boot into OS 9.2.2, which I have to do because I'm using an external SCSI burner, and the support for SCSI in OSX is pretty minimal, and Toast isn't quite there yet either. I swear Toast worked fine, and then one of the updates to OSX broke it.
Whatever. Hopefully before I go on vacation, I'll have one of these babies in my hands.
