Hello all,
I was looking for some advice from everyone.
I am about to purchase my first MAC and was considering getting one of the previous generation machines as I was hoping they would be a lot less. They are less but only by about $400.00. So getting a new one would probably be more cost effective.
However.... (here comes the rub). A friend of a friend of a friend is selling there 15" G4 powerbook for $450.00 - tell me what you think (good deal or not).
Here are the specs:
Leopard 10.5 (i believe)
1.67Ghz
1 gig memory
hard drive 80 gig
I am a designer/developer and I have researched that Adobe CS3 does infact run on G4 (maybe not as well as G5) but I do want to take some time to learn the MAC platform as well.
Thanks everyone.
