Advantages

Expansion	The 8200 contains three PCI slots allowing it to use such performance enhancers as an accelerated graphics card.
Reliability	Apple hardware is consistently among the top in reliability among all computer manufacturers.
Service	Though we all have horror stories, Apple service is among the best in the industry. Apple is one of the last major computer manufacturers to still offer free technical support, not only for new hardware, but often for old systems as well.

Drawbacks

Upgradeability	Since the CPU is not removeable, the only upgrade path for an 8200 is a 7600 series logic board upgrade. This is rarely a cost effective option.
Resale	The 8200 will likely suffer from competition with 7500's and 7600/120's in the resale market.
Speed	An 8200 uses a very capable and high-speed logic board that is hindered by a soldered and less capable processor.
