    Is this a good starter mac?

    I found a dual 500mhz g4 powermac for about $300 w/ a gig of ram and tiger. Would this be suitable for basic functions like web browsing or ilife? Also, how would photoshop run on this computer? I'm aware cs2 would probably be slow, but what about cs3 if I put a better graphics card in it...

    question about the nvidia dualtv tuner

    I had planned to just get a tuner card for some tv recording, and just saw the nvdualtv (and maybe some upsampled dvd playback).

    imac mirroring question

    I plan on getting an 17inch imac and attaching it to my monitor. From what i've read, you can only mirror the imac screen onto another monitor. The apple site says that the imac's screen resolution is 1440x900. Does that mean that if i mirror the screen, that is the max resolution i would get?
