I am looking into purchasing a friends first generation G5. here are the specs i know so far:

First generation iMac G5.
1.6 GHz processor
1 GB memory RAM
80 Hard drive
OS X 10.3 (Panther)

is this a good buy for only $300? are there things i should look for when i go look at it tomorrow? any known issues with first-gen g5's i should know about? i'm not well versed in apples, just windows based computers, but would like to own an apple and maybe make a complete switchover.
