I have a chance to buy a Power Mac G5, dual 1.8 processors, 2Gb ram, 250 GB and 80 GB hard drives, with a ton of high end video, audio and graphic software, all for under $800. Since I've only recently made the Mac move to an iMac running OS X 10.5, I'm still kinda fumbling my way through the Mac world. Think the Power Mac would be a worthwhile purchase? Could the OS be updated to Leopard 10.5? Thanks in advance for any input.
os ain't going to upgrade on that.. no doubt why somebody is pretty much trying to get whet they can for it..
I wouldn't touch it.. not even free.. well not with a mac os on it anyway.. proprietary junk.. hardware and software...
better free stuff is available on better hardware for less than the cost of that junker.. and it is a junker now. You coold buy a quad xeon rack mount server for about half that and have double the bang.. using free unix os and video applications.
