iMac G5

Interceptor · 05-23-2005, 02:04 PM

I've been thinking about ordering a new one for a while now. Specs are as follows:

20" Widescreen display
2.0 GHz G5
Dual Layer Super Drive
250GB SATA
ATi 9600
1GB (1x1024) PC3200
Internal Blue Tooth and Airport

Any thoughts or suggestions?

My friend bought one just after they began selling the new ones, they're pretty slick, nice screen, but i never liked the design of the body, looks like a porcelain block. I'm not sure of his stats, but I'm pretty sure if you're into macs, you'll be happy with it.

Although I like my DGA labs G5 towers better, but imacs are nicely compact.

::EDIT:: oh, i'll add i dont like the slot drive, but small cds arent a big thing (no pun intended, but i am so awesome for that) but i never really liked slot loading except in car cd players

I'm thinking of getting a Mac next, and dual-OSing it with Linux. That way, I'll be able to do pretty much anything I want with it (especially since Mac gets the bigger PC gaming releases, and I'm a casual PC gamer at most).
