I do think a MDD will last you at least two years, but you’re the only one who can decide... Here a few thoughts: - MDDs support harddisks larger than 128GB (without extra hard- or software). - They are nicknamed "windtunnel", meaning that they are rather noisy. An MDD also leaves you some cash for upgrades: - MDDs have only USB 1.1, so you may want to add a USB2 PCI card. (Or use FireWire, for free.) Alternatively, I have a dual 2.0GHz early 2005 G5 with two HDs in it, one with 10.5.8 for everyday use, and one with 10.4.11 for using Classic. Trouble-free in the 2yrs+ I've had it.
