The original Power Mac Picture Thread, over its four year reign, has grown to 32 pages and is easily the number one thread in the entirity of the Power Mac forum. However, to all things there is an end.

The disadvantage to having a four year old thread that revolves around picture linking is that, well... people don't keep servers forever. It is becoming increasingly rare to have all pictures load before page 25 and next to impossible to find any that will load the further back you go towards page 1. All this does is cause annoying load hangs.

So, welcome to 'The New Power Mac Picture Thread'. I've taken the liberty of making this itteration of the Power Mac Picture Thread a sticky, so that it resides at the top of the forum listing.

For those of you stumbling across this thread who weren't around for the original 32 pager and would like to peek around it, you can find it here.

Now, on with the show:

My newly aquired Power Mac G4 Cube with 15" Display and Soundsticks/iSub. I got the cube from a friend in exchange for an Aopen XC18 Cube (a PC). I found the display through a classified ad. It had a broken back leg, but this was easily fixed. The speakers are from ebay and the keyboard will be exchanged for a pro keyboard soon. This is more of an "I build my own computer museum" project.



Cube specs: G4 450MHz, 1GB SDRAM, 80GB HDD, DVD-ROM, AirPort. A very nice system, although I think (oh, blasphemy ;-) my mini + 20" + JBL Creatures is more elegant (and more powerful, of course). The acrylic gives the whole ensemble a very 1970's touch.

These are ridiculously nice setups. I think it's time for a little MacNN socialist revolution & computer-wealth redistribution.

Hanul, that's an extremely beautiful looking retro setup. It's not a G5, but damn - very nice.

Personally I am expecting a third hand used Sawtooth next week for mainly server tasks. It'll not be in the class of a Cube visually speaking, but probably a useful stationary sidekick for my PB (I hope). Perhaps I should post a picture if the machine survive the transport. It'll be my first PM.

Sniffer gone old-school sig

Heh, my Sawtooth will be 5 years old on March 22, so don't come here! What you need to do is redistribute the wealth from your boss to your pocket.

New pic to come soon.
