    The specs looks good as for me.
    Try first what you wanted to install and give us an update.
    We help not because we need to but we help because we want to.........there's a big difference between "need" and "want"

    Well Ok for my Imac g3
    Skype 1.5.0.8 Is the best one that works, (the new one does not open)
    Adium (The new one works)
    Iwork 08 Work
    M$ Office 2004\2008 Both work, (I install M$ office off of my Mac book disk drive via fire wire) Office O8 should not work on g3 as it needs g4 with 800 Mh or more
    Transmission Works
    CCC works
    SuperDuper works
    Idefrag Works
    Mac Tracker works Fine as Well
    And I-life that comes with 10.3 Works Fine as Well

    I'm going to Try I-life 08

    I-work\Life 09 Will not Work at all, as it needs Leopard

    Most G4/5 Programs should work, as the porgam will is it has the G not the number of the g ( I think)

    I think there a MAC upgrading tool available in net. If you want i can search it for you. You can turn your mac into leopard.

    Yes I got you man.

    Yes iLife probably will not install unless you do some hardware upgrades on your machine and then install Leopard on it.

    Also you would have to buy the DVD from Apple to install Leopard on your machine. Which is available here: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC094Z/A

    Unfortunately Mac OS upgrading tools is not available for free downloads, it costs some money. If you're looking for free upgrading tools of Mac OS, all i can give you is to try looking for torrent sites. They have 100% free downloads of these kinds of programs.
