[QUOTE="theymademedoit, post: 1428963, member: 264047"] Hi, I need some advice on what to buy as my next desktop machine. I used to own the original Bondi Blue iMac which I cherished and then due to needing and upgrade and financial strains I made the switch to the darkside and bought a Windows PC. This has lasted me well but now I want to get back to Mac. I need a machine to handle my photography work and need to be able to run the latest Photoshop and Lightroom with no problems. I am not interested in gaming etc and would use the machine only for things like downloading and music. I am looking to get a second hand older machine but not sure what to go for. Any ideas? Would any of the G5 iMacs or the G5 Power Macs do up to this? I Saw a G5 Power Mac with 4gb of ram go for £122 on ebay but I didn’t bid in case it was no good for my needs. Cheers, Al [/QUOTE]
