Great. Congratulations. I hope you have broadband. The Apple Developer 
Tools part of the setup is 300 MB large. The good news is that almost 
any Mac you buy now other than very used and obsolete will come with 
Jaguar. 1GHHz eMac is your best bargain. $999 with a Combo burner but 
only 128MB of RAM.

But if you can swing it, perhaps a dual 867 MDD may still be found 
refurbished for only about $1350 or less - about the same price of an 
eMac with a SuperDrive with a lot more power and OS 9 boot-ability too 
and a like new warranty. Good luck.
