[QUOTE="Jammers, post: 360315, member: 12345"] Most of the G5s are single cores except for a couple of dual core Power Mac models launched not long before the dual core launch. Up to Intel Dual Core the G5s competed well, often faster and more efficent although they kicked out heat but the G5 does not come close now to what a dual core mac can do. However, a G5 is still a powerful amchine and will run GarageBand well but max out the RAM as always with anything running OS X. Mac Minis are ok but remember you need a screen etc to use it which will bump up the cost if you don't have one already. [/QUOTE]
