10 years. Almost. I bought my PowerMac 7500/100 in decmber 1995. Over the years it's seen some upgrades. Coming gradually. It's now running with 10.3.9, a G3/500, 1GB of RAM, an ATI Radeon and multi-GB's worth of disks. Although a bit long-in-the-tooth even when running firefox and thunderbird, it still suits a purpose. Hell, it even runs World of Warcraft daily... yes, even a mac-mini outpaces it on every single benchmark, it does run reliably. I'm considering to upgrade to an upgraded G4. Why? Well, a Sawtooth machine with an 1-1,2 GHz G4 will outpace a mac mini at roughly he same cost. Ongoing dilemma... the Mac-mini is very, very cute... and has a power-usage and form-factor that is very, very, very tempting... What it will be? I don' know yet. A 1.42GHz Mac Mini is the true temptation here...
