i didnt find the apple i saw, i belive it was a dual p4 1gig, very slow at all. it did feel stable and elegant. of course i couldnt really do anything with it because it was a demonstrator but it didnt take long to understand how sweet it is.  
thanks for the link i didnt know david was into macs. ive been using windows and vegas for audio editing for a couple years.i guess ill hae to learn up on the macs.
to bad i cant run os/x on my secondary comp that just sitting there. or can i? how about running it on a old classicII mac i have here??  ;)  
what kind of games available for macs? is there any way to port win games?

Yes thay are dope computers, they may cost more then a p4 but when you use one everyday you will know where your extra money went.  And dont be fooled by the mhz shit, a 1ghz g4 will take out a 2ghz p4.

Yeah and a 1.73 ghz Athlon XP will kick the ass of a 2.2 ghz P4. Combine AMD with Linux and you are set.

Not nearly as many as for the PC, but more then enough for anyone who isn't hardcore.
Check http://www.macgamer.com/
and my friend's company:
http://www.aspyr.com/

Then again if I were more of a gamer, I'd drop a couple hundred on a PS2 (which you can install Linux on).

thanks for the links cocoa
im really intogames but only a few.
i was wondering about how good they look and run in os/x . also ive seen posts about marklar, im looking throught the net for more info on it.
i also have a load of printers and scanners and the like is appl compatible with other peripheral makers?

to all that have helped: thank you

Marklar? Not gonna get it, even if it does exist.

My recommendation: hop over to baucomcomputers.com and get a Blue and White G3 with plenty (>=256) of RAM. Get 10.2 and you're done, for way less than half the price of newer Macs.
