OK, so avoid the quad? I'll agree with the peppiness factor—it really does seem faster. How about a dual 2.5 or 2.3?
I'm hooking this thing up to a 480i (?) CRT via SVID, so HDTV is no factor. The big demand here is compatibilty with older hardware, which I believe the G5 would have more than a rebuilt PC. I'm considering a Mac mini vs. the G5, so I'm trying to stack the pros and cons. Thus far, the big advantage the G5 has is its speed (it may be running video game emulators) and PCI-e graphics cards. Thanks for all your advice thus far. I'm going to talk to my family, hopefully today, to discuss exactly how our home network should be laid out, including which computers we should keep/throw/upgrade/ purchase. I'll probably have some more questions after that. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
