just for comparison, with that $500 you could build a Core 2 Quad with a fast nVidia card, 1TB HD, 4GB DDR2, a DVD Burner, & OS X Retail Install. With the right mobo, the only "hack" needed is the EFI boot partition.
I'm not urging you to go that route, but it would be a better investment than any PPC Mac.
