Okay, I'd love to buy a new Dell laptop, maybe even Mac powerbook, but money is an issue right now. I can't upgrade to the newest Safari Browser with my current OSX 10.2.8, whatever that is. Panther or Jaguar, or whatever. Without Safari 2.0, I can't even answer a question here (I can ask one, like right now, figure THAT out). The stats: this is a 2001 iMac with some professionally done upgrades a year ago. Its 500 MHz, PowerPC G3. Whoopie! ---My needs: no gaming or movies or anything fancy--just basic emailing, ebaying, browsing. Though I might like to install Photoshop in the future...I know that takes a big chunk of memory. SORRY for the lengthy question, but I'm an idiot about computers and need help. The shops here just confuse me and try to sell me stuff. Help me please!!!! Thank you!

You can upgrade your machine to Mac OS 10.4. You can buy that at an Apple store.
There is still some life to be squeezed out of that machine.

Safari 2.0 is only available on 10.4 and newer. Try downloading firefow and using that. I have OS X 10.3.9 and it works GREAT!!!
I have a friend with a G3 iMac also and his works great with 10.3.9.

Upgrade to a pc if you are tight on money. Otherwise go with PowerBook.
