I'm a recently converted Windoze guy to OS(u)X and I have a G5 1.6 with 2GB RAM. Overall, I have a three year old 1.4 AMD with only 1GB of memory and real world tests show that the AMD makes the G5 look like it is standing still. All these years I have been using a PC and I finally buy a G5 and only to find out that it has more problems than it is worth! I lost over $2,000 on this whole machine. I should have stuck with a PC. Apple's claims about speed are ridiculous and clealry unsubstantiated in the real world.
Overall, this machine has randomly frozen more in the last week that I have had it than my AMD did in three years...no joke. I am just now reading about the same fan problems I am having. Of all the people for this to happen to, I am not the one. If all my friends knew that I bought a Mac (from being a PeeCeer all these years), Apple must have done something right, right? Wrong! They did with Panther and the G4's. Unfortunately, I ended up with a G5 and got a bum deal! All my associates now realize how right I have been all of these years about Apple. I went against the grain and got bit in the *** for it!
I would have been a great testament for Apple if I had a decent machine that rocked...instead, I now have more ammunition for my anti-Apple campaign. And trust me, no one more than I wanted to prove myself wrong about all those things I said about Apple..but they failed on me and now they have proven me right. Apple machines are just outright overlypriced, underacheived, highly marketied wastes of time...and money.
I will never buy another Apple product again and will look forward to selling this thing online ASAP. Too late to return and far too costly.
I tried...believe me I tried to like Apple based on my experience with Panther and the G4 I have at work...but they failed with the G5...bad machine..don't waste your money on it...

By the way..my entire award-winning site was all done on a PC...I am afraid to work on my site on this machine for fear of it crashing randomly and me losing work. Right now this thing is nothing more than an overlypriced typewriter...I went back to my 3 year old AMD that makes this thing look like it is standing still...
