Macs have been good computers for awhile dude. Infact the G5 destroys any PC out there today. It has a 64-bit processor, the first in any personal computer. Thats compared to a 32-bit on any recent PC. The only thing that Macs need to get more customers are games. Not many families will buy a mac because the kids want to play games and they can't on a mac. But in processing power the Mac owns PC's.

the only reason the g5 is faster than a p4 is because of the 64 bit processor. in 2 months when the comp ships then there will be a new operating system out to handle it and there will be new pentiums and whatnot.

those of you who actually know about compuers read slashdot, and toms hardware, and they did cheat how is it not cheating when you optimize the programs for the mac and choose not to enable any optimizations for testing on the pc! all a mac is, is a glorified vase. hey look my computer looks so cool and modern, you fucking yuppy piece of shit. now if you have a mac and run linux on it then i have respect for you and your mac

read that, it takes a neutral side on the power, and thats what im going to say. but i still like a pc's format better, and deep down i know for a fact that a pc is faster and mor upgradable. you cant upgrade an imac to add ram or put in a new proccesor.

actually you can upgrade an imac...yes even the G4s..I've done it...plus macs are so incredibly easier to use than pc and take up so much less space and look so much cooler...and I found a software that allows you to play PC games on mac os...ony 60$ plus had like 10 games...or you could pirate virtualPC for free

and the cost factor...I've found that imacs are the cheapest computer around....try to build a superdrive G4 imac comparable computer on any PC site, i.e. dell, gateway, and it'll cost you around 1,000$ more
