Older dual G4. It can add cards for firewire 800 or whatever else comes
along. RAM expansion space is more than a mini, and in OSX that means
a lot.

I purchased a g3 700 iBook 6 months ago and have been very happy. With
the
tax return coming I am looking to purchase a desktop to replace my

1ghz athlon. The new mac mini has caught my eye because I love its
pricepoint. Only thing I do not like is its limited upgrade path. I
have
noticed that people can squeeze years out of a powermac, yet the iMac
etc.
seem to fall behind quickly.
Seeing as how I have a limited budget im looking for recommendations. I
don't want to spend more than 600-700 dollars if possible, yet I want
as
much machine as I can get. The dual g4 machines seem pretty
interesting,
but will they be fast enough to enjoy for years to come? I am pleased
with
my iBook but I want something to do video editing, photoshop and
various
college projects.
So to sum it all up.... Mac mini or older dual g4 powermac?
