Minimum System Requirements Mac

  Operating system: OS X 10.3.9 or 10.4.2
  CPU: G4 or faster processor
  Graphics card: NVidia GeForce 5200/ATI Radeon 7500 or better
  RAM: 256 MB

I am guessing that the GPU is the deciding factor on age.

Yeah, I think the GPU would be the factor.

For a tower, this one has a Radeon 9000 in it...

This iMac G4 has a GeForce 5200 in it..

This eMac has the Radeon 7500..

All of the iBook G4's appear to have at least a Radeon 9200 in them.

The timeframe for these appears to have been late 2003 or first half of 2004.
