G5 Dual 1.8 RAM. Going Big. I ... Think.

Like an iMac, a mini would also smoke your G5 while only using a small fraction of the electricity.

If your machine is running 24/7, you would probably save $10/month on your electric bill.

This is another good point to consider. I only wake up the G5 when I need it, and sometimes leave it on in the depths on winter to help heat the house.

A Mac mini? Smoke? A DP G5? I just cannot wrap my head around this (Especially for the things Chopper says he's doing). An iMac, yes, but a mini, integrated graphics and all. I'm going to have to root around on barefeats for some benchmarks. Could be true, but the idea just makes my head hurt.
