as of right now i have a 1.33ghz g4 powerbook. I was planning on upgrading to a new 12" pb, but then i realized it was a totally waste of an upgrade, and I would be so much happier getting a g5 desktop. I just have a LOT of questions
right now i have a custom built pc. 3.0 ghz p4, 1gb ram, 256mb v-ram.
Given that the g5's are so dang expensive, i think i would realistically be considering the dual 1.8ghz.
my questions are
1) is the dual 1.8ghz machine fast? i plan to use photoshop, dreamweaver, flash, fireworks, etc. and hopefully play games (battlefield vietnam if it ever comes out, doom 3, etc)
2) is there a noticeable diference between the dual 1.8 over the single 1.8?
3) is it woth shelling out the extra 500 for the dual 2 ghz?
as of now i would probably buy the comp stock at apple, and the order 2 gb of ram from somewhere else.
4) is the video card upgradeable later?
5) will i notice similar performance on this machine to my pc machine? thanks for all your help!
