To support my latest 'crackintosh' habit, I ordered a 2.3 GHz dual core powermac. I ordered it with 1GB of ram, nvidia 7800GT video card and ipod nano with the educational offer. If that wasn't enough excitement, I went to the Dell website and ordered the other item I have been lusting after for months... a 24" flat panel (2407FPW).

I can't wait to get them. I've been so enamored with OS X since my ibook purchase almost a year ago. This is just the tool I need to complete my Ph.D.

Question: I have a 5.1 speaker setup on my PC that I currently use via a sound card. Based on my searches, I know I cannot use all five speakers with the G5, but could I use the sub and two sattelites in a 2.1 configuration?

thanks for the assistance!

Congrats man, you're going to love it. I got a very similar machine about a month ago. I am very happy with it. Of course I only ordered a 21.3" monitor to go with it (a Viewsonic VP2130b) but I have been VERY happy with that as well. Enjoy!

you can get up to a 2GB nano for free. If I recall correctly, I could've received $179 off any of the other larger ipods.
