I was just rembering what a huge faff it was to keep my G5 going (admittedly that was before OpenCore patcher so I was stuck with Leopard, which made things extremely difficult, compatibility-wise).
Yet even if one is able to get the old hardware to run the modern OS smoothly the whole undertaking sounds like a headache.. to me at least.
Also couldn't see myself doing "heavier duty Word processing" on a low-res 11" screen like that.@margot_skidder if I were you I'd save up or borrow money and get an M1 Air.

Spending a lot more on something newer that won't actually be any better at the stated task would be nuts.
(actually worse, since newer MBAs are heavier)
