[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 41414, member: 5184"] Apple is not yet shipping the dual 2.5 G5, as far as I know. Anyway, what sense would that make?!? A dual G5 2.5 with 8GB of RAM costs $7649,- Add to this about $210,- for Virtual PC 6.1 with WinXP A good gaming PC wouldn't exceed $3000,- including WinXp (you don't need 8GB of RAM for gaming!!) For the difference, you can buy a whole bunch of games that certainly won't hickup on that PC. And even if Macs are not especially good when it comes to gaming, with a 8GB dual 2.5 you can play every actual Mac game without hickups, without the need of WinXP. Oh, and a little suggestion from my side: instead of dreaming of such extremely expensive hardware, you should buy yourself some english lessons...or is it common in your country to shorten words to just a few letters, so that the reader needs to decrypt your message?? You're not limited in space, so please use ENTIRE words... Just my 2 cents ;) [/QUOTE]
