He could be running 10.4 or 10.5, OS X had bootcamp available as a beta download in 10.4 but when 10.5 was released they bundled bootcamp in with the OS.

One very, very important thing about buying a used eMac is whether it is affected by a hardware failure issue and whether the current owner has had the issue rectified. Here's a little quote from Apple and a link to more info including serial number range of eMacs affected.

QUOTE
The eMac Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues applies to eMac computers that exhibit a certain video or power-related issue as a result of a specific component failure. These computers were sold between approximately April 2004 and June 2005.
eMac G4 Repair Extension Program for Video and Power - June 2006

The eMac that I have and is now selling happens to be in that serial number range. It was sent in and fixed by Apple though I'm not sure what they did, maybe a logic board replacement.

Speedwise, a 1.25Ghz G4 eMac is very good for surfing. No worries about viruses yet. Even running older versions of Photoshop is very fast. Just make sure you have adequate ram, at least 1GB.

As for connecting to the Internet, no probs, you can use any Ethernet ADSL modem. Either using a PPPOE dialer or using the modem as a router. However USB ADSL modems are generally not supported.

Yeah.. Parallel really turn me down the very last time i using it. Eat quite a lot of memory. I can't imagine when use it when i am operating leopard.. sure slow like turtle.

I have make switch to VMware Fusion, which i think is far more faster and very comfortable to be used, even on my leopard. Performance -> GREAT! haha..

it depend what kind of software. Heavy app is a no-no in VM. Well it is much better if u running in native windows especially you are working. VM not so stable, and what if out of sudden Hang or lag until it freeze, how lo? laugh.gif I don't trust those VM (parallels or fusion). If for fun, then no problem la. biggrin.gif

VMware fusion working fine so far without any "hang" during my work time. (No no no, i am not commercials the VMware fusion...lol)

Using mircrosoft word processing such as word, excel, etc and IBM client access. running lost of application at the same time flawlessly..
the only side effect is my fan getting hotter and hotter -.-"

of course when come across heavy duty application such as photoshop, 3d rendering stuff.. dun think abt VM lah.. hehe

just my 2 cent laugh.gif
