    I'm holding out for x86-yaddayadda compatibility. You early adopters can go nuts.

      Yesterday I got banned from a macintosh channel for defending powerpc against Intel.

    There are a whole lot of other cool G4 upgrades.

    For instance, you can upgrade the G4 cube to a candy dish. I haven't finished the website and powerpoint presentation but in the meantime just follow the article's directions to the point where you remove the old motherboard. Then remove anything else and fill with candy.

    Next week I'll share my procedure for turning an old full tower case into a phone stand.

    1. Post an article about turning a Mac into a PC.
