Now that I think of it, I have seen some quad core G5's go for $400 on Ebay. That's out of my price range. I really don't want a Mac Mini. There's just something about having a computer that's only slightly bigger than my cable modem that I just don't like. ;P  I really want a new desktop not laptop, but the early Intel iMacs max out at 2.0GB of ram, that alone pretty much says no go to me. The reason I wanted the quad core was because it has a 1000 point difference in benchmarks over the Dual Core. How noticeable do you think this would be performance wise?</blockquote>
