For me, the answer is simple: My G4 PPC works perfectly and runs the
software that I need at an acceptable speed. An added advantage is
that my G4 can still boot into OS 9 when needed and I can connect my
old SCSI hard drives easily too.
I have several friends that insist on buying "the latest and the
greatest" from Apple or various software vendors. I, on the other
hand, am happy with what I have. My only complaint with my G4 is
that it is a little "jerky" when I watch videos on the
internet...voice and video are a little out of sync.
My wife has a G5 iMac, and I have an Intel based laptop that one of
my schools issued me....both are very fast and very slick....but
neither Mac makes me envious. So, in short, I will upgrade when I
have to but probably not before.
