[QUOTE="Avid6eek, post: 72261, member: 8503"] I don't think you can use the iMac's monitor with your PC because it is build right into the iMac. You would need a seperate monitor. Overall, I would expect your current system to be at least as fast as the Mini. You definetly wouldn't see any performance improvement. The G4 and Athlon XP were always very similiar in performance per clock speed, so your 1.53Ghz Athlon XP would be faster than the 1.25/1.42Ghz G4. The current G5 performs the same as a similairly clocked Athlon 64...just in case your looking for a performance comparison. Originally I was shopping for a Mini as well. The more I looked into the systems offered, I ended up purchasing a G5. A little higher than what my budget was, but I think I'll be happier in the end. [/QUOTE]
