[G4] G4 info needed

[Dale Hoffman]

Robert,

In addition to more RAM, another Video Card, and possibly another  
processor, look into adding more internal storage with a PCI ATA card.  
My G4 has a Sonnet Tempo ATA 133 PCI controller card which let me add  
two more internal drives. For video, it's faster than external  
Firewire. After a few improvements you're spending some real money,  
though.
