Hi Ray,

I own a G4 MDD 1.25 which I purchased new in June 2004.  I think the only
two global complaints you might hear concern the power supply and fan noise..
I did replace a power supply a couple years ago, but other than that it¹s
been very stable.  I recently upgraded to a DVD-RW drive and OS 10.4.11
Tiger, allowing compatibility with newer software.
