[QUOTE="Wapa18, post: 94746"] this is not true. for the single processor powermac, the front side bus and everything are exactly the same as the 1.8ghz imac. the only difference is in the L2 cache, which in the powermac is 512k, and in the imac, i'm not sure if it has it at all, or if it does i don't know what it is. the 1.8 imac and the single processor powermac are basically the exact same machine, just packaged differently and intended for different audiences. personally, i think the single processor powermac would be perfect for what you're describing....it's not overkill, but more than enough power for today and it will last you longer than the all-in-one would.
