Hi all,
I am new to the forums, not really new to macs this will be my second but I haven't worked on one sine 06'. ok here is my question. I am a graphic designer I want to come back to Mac (obviously) A mac pro is no where near in the budget at this time. I found a used power G5 for right at $600. before tax and shipping.
I worked with these back in 04 at graphics school and i remember them being pretty **** cool. so i would just like to get some opinions on the specs and if this is a good buy. thanks all
