I never said it was a bad choice. For laptops, you're absolutely correct. If you ever saw the heatsink for the G5, it's no wonder they had a hard time trying to fit the processor into a laptop. All I meant was that since OS X is now running on intel chipsets, there's no longer a functional hardware distinction, whereas before I would have said that a multi-processor G5 desktop was unequivocally better than a PC desktop for image editing.
True, Max, thank you for the clarification, I lusted over a dual G5 when they were just released, but now a can lust for a 8-core 3.0GHz intel
yeah the heat issues of the G5 were ridiculous, apple advertised "liquid cooled" as if it were a cool added feature, where in reality it was to keep your computer from bursting into flames.
