My work computer is a crappy-ass iMac from early 2000. It's got a screaming 300MHz processor, 256MB of RAM (128 of which is my own DIMM), a 6GB hard drive and a slot-loading CD-ROM drive that can't read through the smallest of scratches. It runs OS 9.2 (our version of Quark XPress won't run on OS X).
Well, there's a Mac G3 Server sitting in the computer room collecting dust, so I fianlly got the OK to take over that. So on Friday, when I don't have any pages I have to get done, I'll do the transfer. The G3 has a screaming 400MHz processor, 256MB of RAM and a 9GB hard drive. It's also got a better CD drive. Plus, since one of the DIMMS in the iMac is mine, I'll take it out and put back the 64MB it replaced, putting the iMac back at the 192 it had when I got hired here, then put my 128 in the G3 server to have 384. Couple that with the 19" monitor and I'll be cruisin'.
OK, so it's still a crappy computer but an upgrade is an upgrade.
