[QUOTE="AlfaFoxtrot, post: 680749, member: 59432"] I've been offered an old iMac G5 for not a huge amount of money (£250). I need a computer for university and have been eyeing up Macs for a long time now. I want to spend as little as possible because money will be tight next year! So I'm considering refurbished and 2nd hand Macbooks and iMacs. Question is, if I were to buy this G5 (it has a 1.8Ghz CPU and 2Gb RAM) would it run things like Aperture happily enough? I have to admit to being completely confused about Apple operating systems, could it run the latest one or is it now specific to Intel chips? TIA. [/QUOTE]
