My first Mac was a used 400MHz G4 that I picked up in 2002. At the time it was a spare machine next to my Intel PC running Linux. I put (brand new at the time) Mac OS X 10.1 Puma on it, mainly so I could compare the experience of using the two OSs side by side. The Mac experience was just so smooth compared to the desktop Linux experience. I've been using Mac exclusively since 2003, and it was all due to that free used G4 tower.
