Okay, two options, obviously the imac is better, but what i wanna know is, how much better. I'm debating between a 1.42ghz g4 emac with the following options:
-512mb memory
-160gb hard drive
-airport extreme
--this comes out to $910.00
or the following 1.8ghz g5 imac:
-512mb hard drive
-160gb hard drive
-(included) airport extreme
--this comes out to $1200.00
I guess my main question is, will that $300 be worth the extra boost in speed. I'm in high school and really all i do is email/aim chat, light music downloading, word processing, no gaming or anything that really sucks the juice out of the comp. However, i might try recording a song or two here and there, but again nothing too extreme.
btw, im leaning towards the emac just because $300 is a lot of money to high school kid, so really take that price into account.
