I'm about to buy a new dual 2.0 g5. Is this a good time (as any) to buy one or does anyone know anything about any new models coming out soon that might have me wait a few weeks/months? (I must buy one within the next 3 months). Also, what might you guys recommend, a new dual 2.0 or the 2nd to last dual 2.3...(haven't quite mastered all the new mac terminology).
Thanks |

OK, now that Mr. Jobs has said that all Macs will go Intel by the end of the year, will it be worth waiting to buy? What will the "bang for the buck" be like? And how much faster will they really be. I'm running audio software (Protools LE) to edit and mix with. Basicaly, should I buy now and roll with the punches or hang around hoping for a better "deal"?
