[QUOTE="Chamorro, post: 28031"] You'll save money short-term buying a Dual G4 (you'll need at least a dual IMO), but if you can swing a DUAL G5, do it. I think the Dual G4 will be a little better than a single G5 for you. Don't get a G4 and expect to be able to upgrade it to a G5 later....it'll need a new mobo/lobo in addition to the new processor, and most mfrs. probably won't spend that kind of money. One other factor: if your projects grow, will your budget grow as well? Meaning, save money now using a Dual G4, save up and get a dual G5 later down the road (they'll be much more powerful then, too). [/QUOTE]
