i would like a g5 powermac, but not enough money now

where would be better,,both of these are mirrored doors quicksilver,

1 ghz single, 64mg 4mx video card, firewire 400 and 800

or

867 mhz dual cpu, 32 mg video card

not sure which to get

[bowwowman]

depends on what you want to do with them.......

both are very capable machines in their own right. When maxed out on Ram, and equipped with big, fast HDD's, either one could be relatively fast and smooth....... but other than the above, don't spend alot of cash on upgrading either one, especially since you sound as though you wont be keeping it that long............

ps: the QS never came stock as a DP/867, and the MDD only came stock as a SP/1ghz with the "Firewire 800" version. The DP/867 is an early MDD

You guys are so lucky, it's not funny. As a grad student studying "new media" I had to spend a fortune to get a decent power mac.

This is around the 10th thread you've created to discuss your computer choice, counting the number that existed before I combined them. And I already warned you not to create anymore.

See you in a week.
