much respect for keeping a PowerBook in use! I keep my 12" PowerBook around for similar uses: Music (iTunes), email (Mail), writing (TextEdit), development (also TextEdit haha). Amazingly TenFourFox (Firefox fork) is still being maintained! It's impossibly slow but that can also be an advantage. I'm still thinking about that post recently where someone said they add a few seconds to a page load. Well, an easy way to do that is to just use old hardware! It's nice to have the internet if you need it, but it's slow enough to not be addictive...

I'm also in the PowerPC keep-alive program. Mine's an iBook G4 and I use it for writing (Pages, nano, TextWrangler), coding (DreamweaverMX, TextWrangler) and VNC to my other computers if I need them. I tend to play a lot of ancient games on it too if I'm not doing any thing productive, SimTower I'm looking at you. TenFourFox is a beautiful thing, though SSL pages are a bit slow so I'm pickier about what I read.

What sort of development do you do on the PowerBook?

Mostly basic plain HTML/CSS pages for teafry.me but sometimes some python I run on a raspberry pi over ssh.
