I've threatened to try and resurrect either my 8500/180 or G4/450AGP.  I just hate the idea of a 2nd box anymore. With my Mac Pro I can finally run all my Mac, UNIX, and Windows apps on the same box, at the same time.

I have an older PPC Mac Mini I use as a Web server.  I order to connect remotely I enabled Remote Login on it and checked "VNC with password".  I use Screen Sharing in Snow Leopard to connect to it remotely. Works like a charm.

HTH,
