I suspect that my new acquisition is running Leopard, but I am not sure yet. It shipped natively with Mac OS 8.6, but with appropriate upgrades, it can now run all the way up through Mac OS X 10.5.8 Leopard. It initially featured either a 400 MHz, 450 MHz or 500 MHz PowerPC G4 CPU, an AGP 2X graphics card and up to 2 GB of RAM. For its day, it smoked!įor the history buffs among you, the PowerMac G4 Sawtooth was introduced in 1999.

He is pleased that it is going to a good home, and I am thrilled to have it. After some consideration of the diminishing amount of free space at home, I said “sure” and he brought it in this morning. Being quite aware of my passion for vintage Macs, and wanting his G4 to go somewhere where it would be appreciated, he asked if I would like to have it.
