A 250Gig SATA disc is about £80 inc VAT these days, so it's not as if that is a hugely expensive component. Apple has to put a big drive in at the beginning, because unlike PCs you can't just buy 2 or 3 HDs later on and put them in the case. Most off the shelf PCs come with 160Gig SATA drives these days anyway.
Actually, the full size G5s are considerably easier to expand than most PCs. (they do have extra drive bays, and these are easily accessible). So, yes, you *can* add extra hard drives to them.
