good priced 20" g5 in 3g???

Splinter

was in 3g on henry street yesterday and spotted this little beauty,now bear in mind iv been chasing a mac for a long time and with the release of the intel chip and the powerpc chip prices dropping through the floor i aint cn a better time.

they have a 20" iSight G5 with a 2.1ghz processor,512mb ram,250gb hdd, superdrive and airport and bluetooth. the unit is coming in at a great price of €1,366 or there is a step down model for the 1100 mark. am i seeing this wrong or are they a good deal?

aint up on mac prices at the mo so would appreciate any help possible here,

thanks folks

Sounds like a very good price if it is a 20" screen

what was the one for 1100 ?

Henry street you say ....

Splinter

its a 1.9ghz processor,17inch screen and a 160gb hdd

only has one RAM upgrade slot compared to 2 on the Intel but crucials prices are goo for mac memory at the moment



but 1100 is an excellent price for the machine you get , considering buying one in the morning if I can sell my mac mini

We still have few G5's left if anyone is interested.

Send an e-mail to tkeane@3g.ie and let him know what you are looking for.
