I can....At work, I currently use a circa 2000 Power Mac 400Mhz (256mb RAM, 10gb hd) machine. It runs the current OS X (albeit a bit slowly) and every piece of software I've thrown at it, including the most current version of QuarkXPress. I'd be confident in buying an all-in-one; I'd be more concerned with the display than with the other stuff.
