Rating: - The Finest PC you can buy
Read my other review about the G5 for the software advantages of the Mac. And my MacBook review about running Windows on your Mac. Let's talk about the hardware:
First off I don't own one of these machines, but I work with them extensively at work (I'm a PC/Mac Technician). This model in particular. I've probably seen at least 300 of these machines, and the failure rate is about 1 in 300 thus far. So, build quality is great.
Its 2 USB and one Firewire 400 port on the front ... Read More
Rating: - Five stars ain't enough
Most of the other reviews have covered this ground already but:
- Have had the machine since 11/7/07 and I'm not sure it has ever crashed.
-Four internal drives and it is almost silent
-Does use a bit of power on start- lights dim
-Awesome power! Fast beyond anything I have that can test it and I use, WINXP via Parallels, FCP HD, Photoshop and inDesign CS3, constantly
-Windows XP roars on this machine, boot camp or virtual

Adding more Ram and such is suggested based on what you need it for.
It runs quiet and the only problems I have are due to the software.
Rating:  - Wicked Fast

I have parallels running my windows vm's (xp and vista) and am now testing out fusion. I added a 2nd video card (same as the one it came with) and now have 3 monitors (fusion beta 2.0 support multi monitor) but i'm not super happy with ... Read More
