Workplace Got Us Imacs!

Our workplace just got us 800Mhz G4 iMacs. I can't believe how incredibly fluid OS X works with these new machines. I've been using Macs but with "ancient" G3's but after seeing how everything works in a G4, I must say that I'm now considering fully switching to the Mac platform. In fact, I'm now saving to get either a Powerbook or even the G5 for my personal use.

It's been fun being around the aqua-soft community. I've never seen a group that's so focused in re-creating the Aqua look in the Windows environment -- and having fun in the process! :D

great - good for you. :)

And maybe after you get the G5 ;) you can give some feedback about the performance.

#53166

yer, dont you be leaving aqua-soft after you've got ur mac :6

#53168

Taha, yeah, I just might get the G5 (But then I have to reinforce my rooms' walls right? ;)) A question... is the Apple Display good enough or should I consider other displays?

And I won't be leaving Aqua-Soft because I still have my ol' P4. :) I'll still drop by but not as often.

i'd go with the apple display, it completes the package :)

#53182

Yeah if you have the money go with the apple display but for people like me I am just getting a regular old monitor.

Fully Switch!

I am gonna by a G5 and a Apple Cinema Display. I am saving up. I cant wait.

G5 + cinema display would be it then! (unless the new 15" Powerbooks come in a great package)

dont worry taha, i've been testing g5 for few hours in a row, and i can tell you nothing is as fast.

Photohop, final cut were going light speed, on a 1.6ghz alone.

one thing about the g5 is that its HUGE computer. Very big case.

Works for me! (Y)

Now all we need to do is find an objective person to review it. ;)

Ive been meaning to ask, Goku: Is the thing really "whisper quiet" (not that you could tell in a store). Jobs said it was, and im trying to figure how he pulled that off with 9 fans!

I'm not so sure that any such person exists!
