...With virtually everything that you could ever hope for in
a PC, the latest offering from Apple has it all. A next to crash proof operating system, amazing speed,3 expansion bays, usb,firewire,audio-in audio-out ports, dvd/cd writer and sheer stateoftheart good looks, these are some of the reasons why I decided to opt for the ApplePower Macintosh G5.
With a price tag of approximately £1399 including vat (from the Apple online store) you get a solid, aluminium cased super computer which is capable of becoming your complete home entertainment system
(music, dvd, tv,).
A display is not included for this price nor is a printer, which leaves you with your choice and not a bundled
second rate alternative.
This is the world's first 64 bit personal computer...........
it's worth the money...
