Assuming it has a G3 in it, he should be able to upgrade: First go to the

it according to instructions, if applicable. Then get more RAM to get at
least 350 MB. Ig buying, buy a 512 MB module. Also, a larger hard drive
might be good, but that can be bought after the upgrade, assuming you
already have at least 6 - 10 GB. (Mac OS X.4 will run on some RAM and
drive small minimum sizes, but not very efficiently.)

The point just became moot. He ordered a new iMac today. He was due for
an upgrade anyway.

Not really: the old Mac can still be upgraded, to get a good second
computer. :-)
