Best computer for G3

I have an older (3years) computer that I put G3 on and it crashes when I run the sym on it.
I put another 256meg memory and a G-Force 5200 (I think) video card and it still doesnt run well.
What is a good computer that will run G3 right from the get go without adding anything to it?
Ive looked at some of the Dell machines (dual core) and they appear to have the needed memory speed and graffics card all ready installed.
Any suggustions about brands/models would be of much help, as I am getting frustrated

How much do you want to spend?

What is the spec of your current computer?

Dell isn't a horrible option.

I'd stick to Core 2 duo processors and stay away from the integrated video options.

If your going to run Vista you want at least 1Gb of memory.

The Video cards are the only thing you need to be careful of, you don't need state of the art, but you don't want bottom of the pile either, personally I'd go for something in the 7x00 series NVidia cards but ATI has competitive video cards. Although I'd have to look up some of the products to see how they wouyld perform.
