[G4] G4 dual 500 Mystic questions

[Wade Tinney]

Mac guys and gals,

I just picked up a G4 dual 500 MHz "Mystic" Gigabit Ethernet from 
eBay, and I have some questions.

These came with a DVD - Ram drive.  Will it burn CDs?

How well does it run with Tiger?  Any issues?

Will the Zip drive work under Tiger?

Any additional info will be appreciated.

BTW, I already looked at the description on the Low End Mac website.

I bought this to give to a friend as a Christmas gift - the 7300/180 
I gave him a couple of years ago kicked the bucket.  But I may sell 
it.  The seller I bought it from didn't realize it was a dual 
processor model, so I thought I was bidding on a Sawtooth and paid an 
equitable price ($222 + shipping.  Included 17" ADC CRT monitor, 512 
megs, 40 gig drive, zip drive).

I can upgrade the memory another 256 megs (I'm pretty sure I have 
that much extra) and put a second 40 gig hard drive in it (it's 
around here somewhere, I'm just not sure where).

I'm wondering if I can get enough for it to buy my friend a Mini 
instead, because he's always dragging his computers over to my place 
so I can fix them or show him how to do things.

Plus I'd love to see the look on his face when he unwrapped a Mini 
after being told, "We just got you a couple of small things this 
year..."
