This is a tough one.  What I really want is a quiet little system I can use to play DVD, MP3, some retro games, surf the web and to play with O/S 4.0.
I'm tempted to try and create a little TV on Demand type device (I wonder if Randeon AIW will (ever) be supported soon?)  [What I really want is support for a Digital Tuner Card, now we have Freeview over in the UK]
So if a G3/600MHz is powerful enough for this, then the cooler chip is... well cool!  But I want to be able to watch a DVD, record a TV Channel, and surf the web at the same time (maybe I should wait for dual CPU?)

Does anyone know if Eyetech are still doing there trade in offer?  'cos I really want to get my hands on my new 'miggy ASAP, and if I find at a later date that the SE is not upto my requirements, or that a lot of software utilises AltiVec, I can swap it for an XE
