I recently got a good deal on a 20" iMac G5 2.1GHz with SuperDrive (with free applecare).
Is there any difference between this and the Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5 tower? Is this iMac powerful enough to bust out with crazy animation, music and graphic design? Any help is very appreciated---thanks! (Oo) """ -emptyView >< |

Big difference, the towers will have two G5 CPUs or a dual core G5, that's like having two CPUs on one chip. the can hold more RAM, room for multiple internal hard drives, the ability to drive two monitors. It's a more powerfull machine than the iMac G5.
It is more powerfull than my current machines and I have now problems getting 32-48 track sessions with my Powerbook. But I compare the price to the current Macintel iMac models, if the difference is just a coulple hundred dollors the Core Duo imac is three to four times more powerful. Even the Core Duo mini is more powerful than the G5 iMac.
