[QUOTE="claudius753, post: 124759, member: 10917"] I have, like you, used several linux distros. I wasn't fond of windows, but Linux still had a way to go, imho. When I went to Mac, I loved it. I can see the Unix influence, but it is easy to use and more 'user friendly' than most linux distros. I would get the most powerful system you can (dual 867 sounds nice), keeping enough money left over to upgrade the RAM to 512 at minimum, preferably more...or save up money to get a new mac. And if you really like Linux, many distros have PPC versions available (for the PowerPC architecture in all current macs) and Mac will be moving to Intel soon, so then I would assume every distro will run on it...but I don't think you will want to run linux once you have tried OS X!
