    Thinking of selling up, dunno if it's worth it...

    Well, truth be told, I don't really make good use of the power of this G5. The biggest workout it gets is ripping a DVD

    My options are:

    1. Keep it

    2. Sell it and go back to my PC full-time (not going to happen, I've bought too much Mac software)

    3. Sell it and get a Mac Mini

    Leaning towards 3.


    My question to you lot is: what's she worth?


    G5 Single 1.6GHz
    1.25Gb (2x512Mb Crucial PC2700 + 2x128Mb that it came with)
    160Gb (Samsung SpinPoint) or 80Gb (Seagate 7200.7) or both
    Combo Drive
    Radeon 9600Pro
    No Modem

    And, of course, the Mouse, Kb & Panther CDs...

    Doesn't seem like it is worth selling it tbh.

    The Mac mini's are castrated..specially if you compare it to a G5
