The eMacs are cheap becasue they have CRT monitors. They cost about the same as an entry level PC from Dell, comparably equipped, so I wouldn’t say they’re cheap, just approprately priced considering their market and capability. If I were on a tight budget, I might want to look at a used 1.25 Ghx G4 tower, though. It’s nice to have the extra expansion and be able to use other monitors. Unless you’re in a classroom setting where it’s nice to have everything in one unit with no cables to trip over.

Microsoft internet explorer for vista. With a 2.2ghz amd athlon, 256mb ram, 40gb hd, combo dvd/cd-rw, 17″ crt, ink jet printer, windows xp home, and el cheapo speakers at Circuit City.add dozens of flavors of linux free if so inclined. Its better than a g3, but as all the g5 versus opteron, pentium 4, xeon, amd athlon, athlon mp, centrino, athlon fx, g4 benchmarks show, the g4 is terribly slowespecially in sigle cpu setups.

Panther may be faster, but OS X still has a lethargic user interface. And don’t forget you get to buy a new Mac OS every year for $129. “eMac at 1Ghz is comparible to a Dell PC with the same specs?” What new Dell comes with only 1Ghz processer? I payed $800 Canadian for a 2200Mhz Intel Kingston 512MB DDR RAM 60GB 7500RPM MAXTOR HD ASUS MB GeForce FX 5600 DVD/CDRW Drive 40/16/48 MSI and all the rest of the parts and as you can see these are not really cheap parts at all with the exception of the built on sound card that I at least had the option to add a new one and disable the built on one. To top this all off I can add many more cards to the case and play many more games and run aot more software at much faster speeds than the poor 1Ghz eMac user will.

Thanks I’m done now. How many PC users are going to keep beating this horse? I happily use 1 800 MHz PC running XP that I custom built (if I am going to worry about add-ons, I will build it to my specs not take what dell gives me) you can not tell a difference when using it at homeI compile programs for school and play games, etc. If I was doing something that was really processor intensive, then I would care, but even video is not that big a deal. The MHz myth is that you notice a difference between 1GHz and 3 GHz. You will get more mileage out of placing a 7200 RPM drive and more memory into a computer than you will see out of adding GHz.
