I'm thinking about just getting an AGP 400 and upgrading it to a 1.2 Sonnet cos it's going to be a lot cheaper for me. The costs are below: Quicksilver 733mhz, 80gb HDD, CDRW, 512mb RAM = £375 AGP 400 upgraded to a Sonnet 1.2ghz, 40gb HDD, 512mb RAM, DL DVDRW = £350

I have a macmini (spec below) and have the chance to swap it with a Powermac dual G4 1ghz with 1gb RAM (quicksilver type), how would the Powermac compare against the macmini? I know it's got dual 1ghz processors but I presume they wouldn't be as fast as a single 2ghz?

I've found a place here: http://www.pcnextday.co.uk/product_detail.asp?stype=5&productcode=1645-2030&group=DVDRW&pgroup=DVDD&ref_site=kelkoo I just wondered about the above question (I edited my post just before you replied, sorry)
