I have a 9600, and a 9650, but I am still looking for an 8600! Why, AV in and out! No six slot G4 upgrade problems, as some people have reported in the 9600. And actually you really don't really get 6 slots as you must use one for a video card to even use the machine. So, to me (wimpy) on board video is always nice (I use it for the second monitor on 7x00's) and put in a good video card (2 monitors to me is a must) And do you really need 6 slots anyway, none of mine are full....... and if you put drives in the bottom of the box they will block one of the PCI slots in the 9600. I have an ATA PCI card in the 9600 and the 9650 (server) has an ultra SCSI card, so now between the video and the extra drives I have a 4 slot machine. OH and the 8600's usually cost less........
