A huge number of people who resisted the iMac G5 have drunk the
koolaide for that one. A friend in England was collecting PayPal
contributions to buy his wife one for her birthday.
Apple seems to have changed their mind about allowing user installation
of memory. It's a one chip machine so you buy the biggest chip you can
afford and are down one chip you can't use if you upgrade the memory
after you buy it.
I certainly want one. I could turn my study into something less like a
machine room.
Speaking of machines, I've still got the Sparc5-170 without a scsi
CD-ROM and an older Pentium 166 Micron machine with 96 MG RAM free to
good homes. The Sparc5 has two network cards. The Pentium has a five
or six port USB card (new as of last year) and I have a CD-ROM drive
that will work in it, plus misc. other things (hard drive case, scsi
cables, etc.). Pick up required (I'm in East Falls). No monitors, no
Sparc keyboard, but I do have a Sparc optical mouse and mouse pads,
microphhone.
