RacerX, I see where you're coming from, but what Mikuro said is more what I was thinking.

The price of the PowerMac G5 is ridiculous. Sure it has great power and expansion capabilities, but it is a high end tower. I wouldn't know one person who had a PowerMac and didn't have a career in video editing or graphics.

Point is, the all-in-one computers are fine, but towers are better for expansion. And at the moment Apple is kidding itself by promoting how powerful the PowerMac G5 is, yet its AU$5000+ price tag is something they don't mention. The funniest part is that price doesn't include a monitor. Shocking.

I hope with the new Intel Macs Apple rethink their strategies. They can offer a super powerful upmarket Mac like the PowerMac G5s at a high price, but lets hope they also release a tower that may not be as powerful but is still good at a reasonable price......with a monitor.
