Hello all,
My G4 iMac just isn't cutting it anymore, so I need an upgrade. I was think about getting the G5 dual 2.7, but I had a bunch of questions first: 1. What's this I hear about an Intel Mac? When are they coming out? Are they going to be better than the dual G5's that are available now? Should I wait to buy untilt hey come out? 2. Obviously I'm gong to need more RAM - I've read good things about Corsair (in this forum, elsewhere). I also read talk of buying in "bundles"? what does that mean? How do I buy ram in bundles? 3. I'd like to have a seperate interal drive to put my samples, audio files, etc. Is there a good reason (performance wise) to get the dual 400GB drives factory installed from apple? If not, can anyone recommend a decent brand for this application? 4. Apple LCD displays vs other Brands? Thanks so much, Charles |

Another possibility for lcd-screens to your G5 would the 19 inch screens from LG Electronics: http://www.lge.com/index.do
Thet are perfectly acceptable and fairly cheap too. We have several at my work. Cheers: Dixiechicken -------------------- ==================
