I have two PowerBooks: PowerBook G3 500MHz that can run Mac OS 9.2.2 natively and PowerBook G4 1.25 GHz with Universal Tiger server. For the regular old programs fist can do some works. For the games and other cool stuff G4 works great.

Keep looking! The Quadra 700 is my all time favorite 68K Mac. The combination of speed and case design was unbeatable.

Very nice looking Mac. Up there with the SE as one of my favorite designs.

The bad part is the limited RAM capacity. Too bad they didn't have higher capacity VSIMMs so they could have had 2 banks of system RAM - or better yet used the Quadra 800s memory subsystem (supports interleaving!) in the 700s case (admittedly that would have been a chronological challenge...

)
