[QUOTE="pokeman89, post: 912906, member: 121289"] Thanks, actually it is $130, he mentioned in his listing that if you use buy it now for $130 you get free shipping. So really it is $130. I can also afford it because I do not have to shell out money for a USB keyboard as I anticipated, just the mouse and DVI-VGA adapter. SO I saved about $10 by not buying a used USB keyboard. Thanks, I'm not sure about how well the G4 will play videos, but I have a 2.4GHz penitum 4 that can play youtube in full 720p even though you technically need a dual core. As long as the power mac is as good as my celeron 2.4 (Which according to some benchmark test and a few cross-comparisons it is in terms of multimedia instructions, by a full 17%!) then I should be fine with plain youtube vids, but most likely I will keep that to my PC anyway. I bought the power mac for certain software such as garageband, iMovie, Final Cut, and Anime Studio that my PC cannot run. [/QUOTE]
