Thanks for all the input. I still haven't bought one yet. I think I decided against ebay and I'm just waiting to see what appears locally. I've always found the G3's to be neat but it sounds like they are starting to become a lot of work. But then again, if its something you enjoy, then its not work .

I found out one of my friends has a 400MHz iMac running 10.4 and he said it was ok. He offered to sell it to me for about $100.. but i was like "um, no thanks". I'm starting to see more pop up on craigslist but they are either ridiculously high or its someone who has no idea what they are selling and you're risking buying something thats probably not working. Gov. Surplus sites also look like they would be good for finding macs, but none of them offer shipping.
