The G5 is the newest one isn't it? The big shiny one with holes? Looks awesome but it depends on what spec it has. If it's a genuine 20" Apple LCD then it's a bargain.

A decent G5 and a 20" Apple screen is worth more than £500 I would of thought.

It's a G5 iMac - you know the ones with the machine built into the screen, not a G5 Mac and a screen (well not that I think anyway)

It isn't the newest one either, though it is the last generation before they moved from PPC to Intel chips. All in all stick some more RAM in there and it'll be a good machine.

Ah, one of these pretty little things?



Looks quite sexy but it definitely depends on the spec then. It might be a bit outdated so look to see how much it would cost to bung some more RAM and a bigger HDD in etc.

Yup, pretty sure it's one of those but can confirm tomorrow. 512Mb RAM and a 250Gb drive.
