The vast majority of people viewing web sites are not web developers are
they?

2 1/2 years is old I suppose. Mine is 1 1/2 years old. So, getting on, but
still very useable. And fast.

I wasn't intending this to be a Mac V. PC thing. I do talk from experience
actually. 11 years using a Mac, 2 years using a PC. Both have there obvious
advantages and disadvantages. But in tests, the G3/233 wiped the floor with
the top of the range Pentium II. When looking at a Mac's clock speed, don't
compare it to a PC with the same clock speed. It doesn't work like that. If
you want more information I can point you in the right direction :-)

Good. Good luck.
