Of course if you wish to minimise your energy Bill increase then save your serious computing for the Wintertime - all that waste heat will offset your central heating !

Seriously though, I've used G3 and G4 machines with older Fedora Linux (Fedora 8 to about Fedora 13 I think) releases for Mac with not many more problems than any other releases. I've used OS X 10.0,10.1,10.2,10.3,10.4 and 10.5 on G4s - great fun.

I think you will be using PC133 memory in your machine. Just be aware that some memory stick architectures do not work with Mac - so I'd advise double checking compatibility should the need arise.
