Ah, the iMac. I remember the time I was disassembling one, and upon struggling to pull the belly plate off (It must have been jammed) It popped off and I punched myself in the nose! I was in pain for a month or more.
I've been wondering what will be the next 'Pro' case too. It is getting quite old/stale. As for games, I wouldn't invest anything in Mac games, unless you can get them for next to nothing, play web games, Free ones, or ebay cheepies. The PS2 is a way better investment, as it plays new games and all the older ones. Although I invested in Mac games, in retrospect, I should have gotten a PS2. I have a GC though! MYST was interesting, but it finally put me to sleep. I like the TRs. Angel of Darkness was the best Mac OS X PPC game, imo. I hardly have the time to drain my brain on games much anymore though. Anyway, I still use Mac OS 9, 10.3, 10.5, and 10.4, and I'm in the process of getting ready to install YDL 6.2 on a G4 400 AGP! I think I still like 10.3 the best and it's support was way too short for such a capable OS X. G4's are totally fun and pretty easy to upgrade. I still wanted a G5 only untill recently. I'm probably going to make the leap after 10.5 support is done (To what I don't know yet, for sure) likely a mini, or I'm thinking in a couple years there may (finally) be some actual options and something with some actual expandability, besides one FW 800 port and monitor/LCD TV options on the mini. I think Apple needs to move on to other models besides the more than a decade old iMac and limited mini. Blu-Ray player would be nice too! -Mike On Jan 24, 10:55 am, Dan <dantear...@gmail.com> wrote: > I thought it was funny to see how the other companies jumped on > copying the iMac. > > Not crazy about the iMac G4 design (too many with limp necks).
