Check power computing's web site. http://www.powercc.com  Because they are
closing up, they are selling stuff dirt cheap. My suggestion is that
whatever system you get, you should get something with a 604 (or even
better a 604e) processor. If you really have to go extremely low buget, you
might want to take a look at the Power Computing PowerBase 240. It's a
240Mhz computer (but it's 603e, which has a less advanced chip architecture
as the 604.) Power computing computers, I believe, are now coming with OS
8, either that or they give you a very easy option to upgrade to OS 8 for
dirt cheap. Anyhow, definately go with OS 8.
