trading your computer for a 5 year old G4 is hardly a fair trade....
moving to mac without knowing how a mac works just seems kind of rediculous to me. anyhow, i tried selling my old system on craigslist and had it priced reasonably and had no takers so i ended up selling it piece by piece and all that is left of it now is its dvdrw drive.
you might be able to sell your system for $400-500 possibly and put that towards a mac but i would not advise trading for a used mac that is old....
maybe you should find mac os for x86 and run it on your current system... problem solved.
