[QUOTE="dubs, post: 298648, member: 24657"] Hey, I wish i was on a Bill Gates budget. But I have to make the best of my $. I'm interested in purchasing a PowerMac G5 (And can not commit to anything over $2000. I did find a deal for a refurbished Power Mac G5 Dual 2GHz for $1700. Of course I will max out the ram and put (2) 500 gig harddrives in there. My question from experience users, will this machine suffice for basic final cut pro work (music videos) and flash (FLV processing)? If I had the budget to buy any G5 now, what would you reccomend? And whats the least G5 to buy if you wanted to work on final cut but had a limited budget. Hey if its worth waiting and saving some more pennies, then it may be worth it. But waiting for ever as new G5s roll out occassionally, isn't cool. Anyones feedback is greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
