Yep, especially when I have no Macintosh to test with.

Dude, I never thought I'd say this, but stick with Dell or an alienware or whatever. I think they're more your speed.

No, there is one reason why I can't do that: The superiority of Mac OS X over Microsucks Winblows!!!

King Shrek, your biased point is:
asking for a G5 iMac because a G5 powermac is too expensive. If performance is what you want to have, why refusing a Dual G4?
This is why I believe you are just into new technology having no clue what it actually brings you. Your so_great game development won't work any better with a G5. And making a general statement out of it, that apple is just too expensive is the next biased point in your arguments.

Please read my reply in the other forum concerning your assumptions.

Yes, a G4 may fulfill my needs for a short time, but a G5 will bring me much more longevity.
