Powermac G5 1.6ghz, 80gb hdd and 768mb ram + 17" apple display + kb and mouse for £300. To buy or not to buy?

have u already got a pc monitor and keyboard?

if you have get a mac mini. Higher spec for £70-100 more, although there is no monitor.

wouldnt the g5 be generally faster? If I sell the screen for about £50 ish...thats a powermac g5 for £250...

Oh and yes, I can BYODKM!

I suppose you're right =/ in general the mini has better performance overall. just researched
