I think definitely.

I think if you forked out the cash for a 20" it'd be even more worth it.

i think there`s nothing to think about :P

Well yeah, I think it's a given that he should get the G5, I think all he needs to decide is if he wants a 17" or a 20".

edit: post 100!

hm. i don't think it's worth it at the moment. i would be satisfied with a machine like that. anywaz, a couple of questions. is it a dual system or single processor? also, what do you do with it? i would even be satisfied with a 1.25 ghz imac you know, because i don't use cpu intensive stuff much. i am very used to tiny screens like 12 inch ibook that i like to play around at church, and 15 inch imac g4 700mhz. they seem fast enough for me, even if memory is 128! i do not know how fast the ibook is yet, but they are fast enough for me. i don't have that money to burn.

also, you still have 99 post.

edit * now you have over 100. :cool:

Yes, well he can sell of of that equipment of his and get a brand new iMac G5 without a dime more (or so he says) so why not?
