Mac has no good midrange
by Wert on Tue 29th Jun 2004 03:41 UTC

I do like macs. I am using a G4 iMac right now, but macs are definately expensive. I recently built a pc that is pretty decent, and outperforms any 1.25 ghz G4 I have ever seen.

It has a top of the line mobo, Radeon 9200 (not great, but does the job), 512mb RAM, 200 gig hd, 2 gigabit ethernet ports, 1.8 ghz Athlon XP CPU, "superdrive", secondary CD burner, non generical PSU, USB 2.0, Firewire, some more stuff that I dont remeber, for about $650 US dollars (tax included). You may be saying that that CPU does not beat a 1.25 ghz G4, but in this system it does.

I wish apple had some sort of decent system for that price.
