Hi there!
I am considering changing to a mac mini. However I am spoiled using a large dual monitor setup. Is there ANY way to run two CRT monitors from a Mac Mini?
Thanks for your suggestions,
Robert
 
I'm afraid not, as the Mac Mini only has one video output. Also, I wonder what benefit you'd expect to get from changing a Power Mac G5 for a Mac mini. Admittedly, you'd have an Intel chipset, but the small payoff of being able to run Windows natively would not be worth the tradeoff in performance in all the applications that are still not universal. What do you use your computer for? From the Wacom tablet in your signature, I'd assume you'd probably be doing a fair bit of design (perhaps PhotoShop) and you would find the Power Mac G5 a *MUCH* better machine for that kind of work.
 
I have heard all kinds of hype about the intel mac's performance. I am stuck at single processor 1.8Ghz. And yes, I am a photoshop/iDVD user. I thought moving to the intel with dual core would give me an up in performance. Are there any benchmarks I can look at?
Thank you for your observation,
Robert
 
in the two apps you listed, your g5 will be running close to the core duo. i'd say forget about intel cpu until the apps go native, and apple has a pro tower. the mini is the wrong platform for someone that does alot of graphics.
