Advantages Fast machine for its time, easy to maintain Disadvantages Now replaced by the Mac Pro Intel machines
...the memory slots and drive bays is very easy - much easier than most Windows machines I've dealt with.
The machine has a full range of USB and Firewire connections both on rear and front panels. It comes with Gigabyte Ethernet Connectivity. You get a DVR-R writer and 160G SATA hard drive. The case is almost like a piece of sculptor! Internally you also have PCI-Express slots but there are very few suppliers of these cards for Apple machines.
Our machine has been running in an Art gallery supporting two different video installations for the last 5 months without any problems and we'll install Mac OSX Server on it to use as a web server in future.
So if Apple UK still has stock or they have some refurbished machines AND you still need a 64bit PPC machine, the PowerMacG5Dual might be for you....

Advantages Stylish and really great Disadvantages hardly any
...Its been an interesting 9months for me, a more than 10 year PC user now in the MAC Zone! Yes, I purchased a MAC!! Over the past year other PC user friends of mine have been telling me that, never mind the G5's fast performance, the OS or what's called OSX is the jewel that this article failed to mention! My official feeling is now don't even hesitate to buy the G5, but for me its not because of the blistering performance it's because of the OS that's the clear winner for me. This operating system is truly amazing! I'm running all my windows versions from my past machines all at the same time. With the OSX Unix solidness, and many features you can hardly imagine, XP on my old Dell looks dated by at least 12 years! I'm backing up my XP Compaq Presario 2160 to the G5 and the backup will even boot on the G5. Anyway, keep your XP laptop...
