Whilst I know it's largely uneconomical to do, I'm still intrigued by FastMac's G3 to G4 upgrade for the slot-loading iMac. I'm also aware that it's not compatible with the model of iMac G3 I have. My question, rather than being about the cost viability of the upgrade, is about the performance boost. In day to day use of Tiger, would ther ebe any really noticeable performance enhancement, or would it largely be the same? (Day to day use consisting of listening to music with iTunes, surfing the internet and doing email, using Word.) Also, how would the DivX/Xvid performance be? It's choppy on the G3--would it be smoother on the G4?
I'd really like to hear from anyone who's taken the leap and had the upgrade done.
