Getting a Mac in a few months, is an iMac or Power Mac more suitable for my needs?

[QUOTE=".altan, post: 72128"] Yeah, that's what I'm thinking so far. It's just the psychological speed difference - I could theoretically downgrade to a 1GHz P3 and work fine, but things being that slightly less responsive could get on my nerves - especially if I'm going from an old system to a new system. Well, I have the RAM anyway so I don't need to upgrade anything up front. I still prefer wires (and I don't have, nor do I plan to own devices that can only connect via Bluetooth or 802.11x) so I won't have to worry about Bluetooth/Airport any time soon. I'm pretty sure I'll go for the AppleCare too, since this isn't like a PC where I can just buy a new motherboard/CPU and expect it to work, should things go wrong. [/QUOTE]
