This "Quicksilver" is quite a sought after model despite it's age, it has dual 1Ghz processors and you can fit 1.5 Gig of RAM into it. Also has Firewire 400 which is faster than usb2.0. I would not recommend using Leopard 10.5 but preferable to use Tiger 10.4.11 runs sweetly. does not need extra utility to boot from other OS as far as I know, would you need Linux when you have Unix and X11. Used with "Crossover" you can run MS apps on it as well as Linux. I have one of these for Video editing and it still sits proudly on my desk alongside newer hardware without showing any signs of reduncancy for quite a while yet. Best of luck with it. Patrick
