It's arrived and I'm pretty impressed. I've actually taken OS X off and gone back to System 9 for a decent retro gaming system:
Sawtooth G4 450 (mobo transplanted into a B&W case)
640 MB RAM
Geforce2 MX
It's very fast under 9! I did have some problems installing the downloaded Nvidia drivers. They point blank wouldn't installl and I remember reading that they originally only came on the system disc for the G4's with the cards pre-installed. A couple of minutes with Tome Viewer and all was good.
As a side note, I never cease to be surprised by the fps difference in 3D games on same speed G3's vs G4's. The fpu performance is so much better on the G4.
