I think I'm going to get a Dual 1.25 G4 with a 17 inch Studio Display...

But I'm going to wait until January (after MacWorld Expo) to buy it to see what goodies Apple is going to come out with for it's 30th Birthday

I could never justify spending so much to buy a Mac, but to each his own I guess

Resale value? The PowerMacs hold their value suprisingly well. Say you bought a $2500 Canadian PowerMac back in 1999. It will be worth about $1000-1200 canadian now. Expandibility, it'll last a long time. I might just save the money and buy and iBook and an iPod for $500 US less.

Yes you would buy a BMW or some other overpriced car when you could buy a Kia?

Pics from today:

20 inch iMac, what a BEAUTIFUL HUGE SCREEN

Comparision between the All in One Apple Desktops.

12 inch iBook G4. Pretty cool, felt good in my hands and felt good when I typed. Touchpad was a little too touchy though and it froze while I was testing out THProSkater4 at 640x480 with no fog. Kinda dissapointing but everything else was awesome. Good price too

All you can do at this setup (23 inch Cinema+G5) is Expose rocks

14 inch iBook G4, I'd probably get this or the 12 inch if I were to get a notebook. The screen is actually nice on the 14 inch, unlike some people say, it's just as clear as the 12 inch IMO
