I recently got a good deal on a 20" iMac G5 2.1GHz with SuperDrive (with free applecare).
Is there any difference between this and the Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5 tower? Is this iMac powerful enough to bust out with crazy animation, music and graphic design? Any help is very appreciated---thanks! (Oo) """ -emptyView >< |

Wow-- i've been searching for information on the web for almost 2 weeks before i posted here and i like these postings better. It's very frustrating not knowing what you're getting into.
My wife has an iMac G5 20" and so far it's really cool for multi-track music and graphic design, which is why I bought one of my own. But something is stopping me from opening it up. Maybe i need to hear someone say "yeah, the iMac G5 is great for music and graphic design" And as far as animation, i'm just learning 3D animation using 3D studio max and also studying maya. so i don't know what direction i should be heading as far as what type of system to keep. all the info posted here is cool tho-- thanks. keep posting if you'd like-- |
