It was a really cool machine back in its days, not "weak" by any means — I remember using it for jamming with friends and recording it using Firewire interface into Ableton Live: bass, mic and couple of MIDI controllers, it did slow down to a crawl, but it could handle it.
I wish I could "recreate" this experience, but I can't activate Live 8 anymore: online activation fails because libraries in Mac OS X 10.4 can't handle newer TLS…

And offline works for base software, but not for additional instruments, without which Live is more or less useless for things other than deejaying. I've been exchanging e-mails with Ableton for over a month, but there is no one there who can still remember how this is supposed to work for older versions. I have the software, I have a license to use it, but I can't do that because "old" — the fuckers! So much for paying for software licenses 😩
