The better point would be runing OSX and mac apps on the xbox.. base g5 = $1899 canadian xbox 360 = $300 canadian..
It would be worth the hack.. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 12:48 PM To: G-List Subject: Re: [G] Tis true: Apple moving to Intel Just wanna let everone know, you can still buy a PPC motherboard (for about $6,000), run Linux, and run a program called Mac on Linux, which would give OS X direct control of the hardware. It is therefore very fast, not slow like emulation. Anyway, if theres one thing Id like to see happen from all this, I hope Apple starts using the ATX standard. Not to mention mini ATX, micro ATX etc. Not 2 days before this subject came up, I was telling my friends about the new xbox using a G5, and pointing out that it would probably be easy (for software developers, or using some sort of software program) to run xbox games on G5 Macs. That would have been so awesome. If the Mac could run xbox games, the Mac would be much more competitive in the gaming market, as it would actually run more games than the xbox itself.
