If your mac could handle the ectra umpf, I would go for the 800, I will be the better option. Your computer is only going to be as good as the slowest thing on it. So if your bus will only handle 350Mhz, your 800 Mhz CPU will sit there at half capasity. and thats just a bloody shame -------------------- BING BING BLEEP ERRRRRRR[I]
