I can't wait to get the new RAM into it as well


But I'm not leaving the mac camp for good... I'm just waiting for the intel powerbooks, then I'll buy a new mac





The only thing that worries me is that I have rounded IDE cables, and the DVD-R drive is on a 24" cable, both of which conditions violate ATA spec. While they're twisted pair (each data is twisted with a grounded cable) and shielded, I dunno if I'll see corruption or not
