Hi There, Looking for your views on the following.

I have a chance to grab the following at a good price. < usd6k for a 3mth old used.

Quad 2.5GHz PowerPc G5
HardDisk - 500 GB Serial ATA - 7200 Rpm
Memory - 4GB 533DDR2 Non ECC SDRAM 4x1GB
Graphic Card NVIDIA GeForce 7800GT 256 MB SDRAM
Airport Extreme + Bluetooth
Apple Wireless Keyboard + Mouse
Apple Cinema HD Display 23"

3 yrs Applecare.

I work in Finance (am a photography hobbyist) and most of the eapplications are PC based. I've a 17in PB 1.33ghz and most of the harddisk space is used up by my Photos. My wife prefers the PC (mines 6 yrs old) and am not really comfy with the MAC.

Do u guys think that this is overkill? The deal seems too good to pass.

Thanks

Is it worth it? Depends on the price. If it's less than retail, yes. You won't be sorry.
