[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 432138, member: 2960"] There is absolutely nothing wrong with a PPC processor. There is a grandiose library of applications and software available for the PPC platform, and software is still being developed for it. Universal software is universal because it is designed for both Intel and PPC architecture. Software that is Intel only is virtually nonexistent, with only a few small proprietary apps out there. Yes, Intel is now the present and the future of Apple, but just because a Mac is running a PPC does not mean it is irrelevant, slow, or worthless. There are also alternatives to running Windows apps under a PPC platform, BootCamp is not the be-all, end-all of running Windows on a Mac. :D I agree 100%. Research would have also shown that the OP got a great deal and an extremely capable computer. :D [/QUOTE]
