thinking of buying a mac....

First: Let me handle those rumors:
I have heard nothing about a G5 coming out any time soon.
A higher-speed G4 with DDR is very likely, though.

Second:
The cheapest ADC display is $599
All PMG4's come with a DVI connector (I think...check though) and Apple definately makes, if not includes a DVI-to-VGA adapter if you want to use a CRT. A Pic of it is on this page: http://www.apple.com/powermac/graphics.html

Have fun

Just get a 500 dollar PC and put Mandrake 9.0 on it and use the "liquid" theme.  It looks very similar to OS X.

Better yet, just use XP.  It works, so why not?

XP WORKS XP WORKS IT REALLY DOES WORK NO BUGS NO HASSLES SURE MAC IS TRENDY BUT WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO COST XP IS BEST>

wtf $500 pc - what is it a 286? XP with no bugs -ha! It couldn't even run my hardware properly and they are standard components - Asus AV7-Pro mobo, 80gig Segate, NVIDIA GF3TI200, stuff like that and XP insisted that my harddrive can ONLY run in PIO mode instead of mode5 (ata100). XP - eXtemely Pathetic!

Wait here is the line that confuses me >>

Buy a 286 and put Mandrake on it...
Are you seriously advocating the use of Mandrake which _is_ free software. Maybe this site is having an effect on him   .
