I do not own the system yet, a person I work with is giving it to me, and since I do not use Mac's that much I thought that this would be a good chance to run a Unix os on older hardware. Please let me know if I can and if I should pursue this. I do have a pc that runs Winblowz 98 bloatware,( I will be honest tho, it does ok and it is easy for my wife and kids to use) on an 333 Celeron. I have considered dual booting this machine and I will once I add a 2nd harddrive. But I would like to take advantage of the MAc and not waste it.
