[QUOTE="krag195, post: 995749, member: 142714"] I had the same dilemma, I decided to go with the G5, for the sole reason is I there are more DYI upgrade options. Yes, the G5 is a whole lot bigger than the mac-mini and it doesn't run intel but I have had zero problems. With the G5 you have 2 internal HD's to play with along with PCI slots and the option of upgrading your Graphics card and if you so please dual monitor. Unfortunately the mac-mini doesn't dual monitor and you cannot upgrade at all, I believe. Each has their benefit, if you are looking for something smaller and with newer technology go with the mac-mini but if you want to tinker and upgrade it yourself then go with the G5. [/QUOTE]
