[QUOTE="sirflux, post: 1769427, member: 395540"] Hello fellow Mac'ers, I've always been a Linux/Windows user but through work I have aquired an Mac G5 with the dual 2.0GHz processors and a half GB of ram. It also has the ATI video card in it. As this would be my first Mac experience, I was wondering if upgrading this computer would be worth it or if this is a relic I should just sell? It wouldn't be a hard core editing machine, but I would like to have at least 4gb of ram and upgrade the video card if possible. As a Windows user I am a total newb to Apple and the upgrade process and selection. I mainly have two questions... -Is upgrading this older PC going to cost more than an arm and a leg? -If I do upgrade the PC then would this be a PC that would provide a good Apple experience? Thanks all for your input! [/QUOTE]
