[QUOTE="yogi, post: 187915, member: 8542"] It really is about what you're gonna do with it. So to say, list out all the apps you'll want to use. Find out wheter they all run on Intel either natively or with Rosetta (coz there are some little apps that rosetta doesn't do properly). If you're gonna use apple pro-apps, you'll want the extra performance, if you want it for general hoem use, G5 will do it (even though encoding DVD's sometimes pisses me off coz it takes 2 hours on a G5 - will take maybe 10-15 minutes less on an intel). But it really depends on apps used and kind of calculations you're gonna throw at your cpu. [/QUOTE]
