Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed
Personally as a system builder if someone wanted a compact system I would build a media centre pc for about the same price,but its purely my opinion,The G4 is a 32 bit cpu is it not?the G5 has 64 bit extentions
Shuttle XPC SK43G Aluminium Barebones System - Socket A £104.70
.
AMD Sempron 2400+ 1.67GHz (Socket A) CPU - £38.95
.
Crucial 512MB DDR PC3200 CAS3 £29.95
.
NEC ND3520 16x16 DVD±RW Dual Layer ReWriter £29.00
.
Hitachi Deskstar 7K80 80GB ATA-133 2M £29.95
.
Connect3D ATI Radeon 9250SE £25.95
.
Hauppage WinTV-Go PCI Adapter (GX-016-HA) 1 £27.95
.
Subtotal £286.45
VAT £50.13
Total £336.58
kit from overclockers complete with faster cpu more ram,just add xp home or media centre (might need a different tv card to run media centre)
This is all done purely from my opinion and just to highlight what you can get for same cash
