    so the misses needs a mac

    where is the best place to pick up a second hand G4 with screen? also do normal pc screens work on macs? and what sort of spec should we be looking for with say £650?

    thanks Jim

    Normal pc monitors work fine on macs

    They run it how they want, I'm not gonna pass judgement on how they do it. We like to do things very differently here, hence the nicer atmosphere
