Keep in mind that with the G4 you will be limited to Mac OS X 10.5, i.e., Leopard and only software that will run on the PPC. There's still a lot you can do (I'm using a G5 tower, so I feel the pain...only alleviated by using my day-job Intel MacBook Pro!) so it's still worth snagging at that price.. And you can do some upgrades to make it more efficient (more RAM, fast hard drive). Good luck!
