Which would be the better/faster machine out of these two:
1) Second hand Power Mac G5 Dual 2GHz Power PC with 4GB Ram.
2) New Aluminium iMac Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz with 4GB Ram.
I was originally looking at buying the second hand G5 Power Mac but have since wondered if id be better going for a new iMac. Will the iMac outperform the G5? I'll mostly be using it for music production, running Logic Pro.
Im particularly intreagued as to the comparable performance of two seperate G5 processors over a single dual core intel. I cant seem to find a comparison on the net, i guess mainly because the obvious comparison would be to compare the G5 with the new Mac Pro's, but unfortunately they are out of my budget.
Anyone have any advice, or able to shed any light on the matter?
Thanks!
