I poked at one for a few minutes at the Apple Store at Northpoint.  It
was a 1.42GHz with 512M RAM.  Didn't do much more than poke at Safari
and load some Flash stuff with it, but it felt quicker than my
1.25GHz/1G powerbook.  I've all but decided I'm getting one to replace
the 266MHz/96M original iMac (well, 2nd revision) that the kids use
(primarily to hit pbskids.org and play their preschool / Blue's Clues
/ yadda yadda yadda Shockwave stuff).


I use the above mentioned powerbook as my primary desktop at work and
I'm still more than satisfied with it; runs OmniWeb, iTerm, some
remote X stuff, and Mail.app just fine (of course I am geting bumpped
up to one of the 1.67's that just got announced this week, so I'm sure
my expectations will likewise rise :).

    Christopher&gt; How can i find out if my HP A4033A monitor will work
    Christopher&gt; with this?  It is an old 1994 21&quot; workstation
    Christopher&gt; monitor.  It works fine under Linux.

As Chris said, if it's VGA (and doesn't require some reallly weird
sync frequency) it should work fine.
