Comparing Apples with Apples

I need to 'audit' some Mac G4 computers and workout which are the best to retain after a lease ends. They are all running Tiger and in a lab situation.

Is there some application that I can either run from a network or off a USB key, CD Rom to test the health of the hard drive, processor and memory? Output to a txt file would be a bonus.

xbench should do the job

GeekBench

Any dual processor G4 is still very usable in photoshop/everyday tasks, it's good to hear that they're still out there in use.

Thanks both of you - those programmes look ideal. I'll try them both out and see which best suits.
