I entered the world of Apple hardware about 3 months ago now, with a second-hand iBook2. It was a 500mHz, 256mb, ATI Rage 128 model, with a standard CD-Rom drive. I spent the first few days trying to tweak Mac OS X to my liking, then a few further weeks installing and learning to use the applications I thought I'd need. Chimera, BBEdit, the developer tools, even the Fink X server so I could use Gaim.

So what if 256MB or 128MB of RAM is all you "need". Who cares about needs... I WANT 512MB or MORE of RAM in each of my machines, x86 or PPC. RAM is sooo cheap these days, I don't understand why anyone with a $1 doesn't have at least nearly a gig in their machines.
