Hi all

At the moment I'm trying to convert some of my friend into buying a iMac G5
in a couple weeks.. Instead of a Windows PC....Dell model

The specs for the G5 iMac is
1gig of ram
160 HD
Super Drive.
And the Total price from the Apple Store came to $2,927 and I did do a Dell
comparison and of course the Dell was cheaper by $800 or so.

Is there anyone on the List who works at a Apple reseller store do a better
deal than Apple Store online.
My friends do like the iMac G5 but price may even turn them to the dark
side..


If you want to go el cheapo:

iMac G5 1.6 GHz, 256MB RAM, 80G Hard Disk = $1,999
Kingmax 512MB RAM = $116
Maxtor 120 GB Hard Disk = $141
Sell the internal 80G Hard Disk on Ebay = -$70

Grand total of $2,186 but with slightly less memory and smaller HD. About equivalent in price to the Dell model you mentioned.




Cheers, Glen Low
