Thanks for the advice guys. I'm a bit of a noob where PPC and drivers are located.. can someone give me a pointer as to where they are?

@360alaska:

I've pondered the same thing. My first OSX box was a 233mhz Gossamer with 128mb ram with 10.1 and later 10.2, so this shouldn't be much of a stretch. Might give that a go later.
