Its been awesome, but now that the g5 is out i of course want that. And back then that was a really good mac, and the price was higher and i thought it was the best buy, i didnt know anything about the G5, or too much about mac in general. The last two weeks I have been trying to figure out a way to get a G5. I saw this site - <a href="http://www.macmastershop.com" target="_blank">www.macmastershop.com</a>, which sells stuff for about 300 less then apple, i was going to sell my imac and ibook on ebay, hope to get about 2,200, and get the dual 1.25 ghz powermac G4 and 20" display from that site, but I heard that they might be a bad place to buy from.......still looking into that tho. In the mean time I figured out I could affordt the dual 1.8 g5, with ati radeon 9600, 512 mb ram from the apple store through buying with the education discount. I am definately eyeing that now, and if I don't get enough money for that then definately the 1.6 G5, with ati radeon 9800 pro.......id have to use my emachines crt monitor instead of a 20" apple cinema display if i got the G5......but it would be worth it. Hopefully we both get our G5's <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> !</p></blockquote><p></p>
