Does anyone have any idea how the new imac might measure up speed and track capacity wise, using say Logic Express? Would it be a good or a bad decision to buy a g5 imac loaded up to the gills with ram and a 1.8, or a powermac g5? That's considering the fact you then have to buy display etc. with the PM.

Bloodychoir, It depends what you want to do with it. Do you already have all the other stuff you need? Remember that can cost much more than the computer. Depends where you don't mind weak links in the chain. Some people don't mind paying for top end computers and are quite happy with crappy nearfield monitors
If I didn't already have 3 working macs (that each do what I need) I'd love a sexy wide-eyed G5 imac. Mmm  My way of upgrading is buying a new bottom of the line mac when it becomes necessary. Unfortunately for the sexiness, that's not going to be soon. I need a portable 6 mic interface and more mics first
