It's Almost Not Fair

Cons:Still not popular for game developers

Don't let the 400 MHz speed of this Macintosh G4 fool you. Running on the latest Macintosh operating system, the G4 chip is just as fast, if not faster, than the best Pentium 4 computers currently available. The G4 processor is simply more efficient than the chips offered by Intel and AMD. Although the G3 was also a powerful chip, it was released when Apple was going through a tough period financially. But Apple recovered and the release of their new line of G4 computers has been very successful. This is a customizable computer that can fit the needs of anyone from the person who likes to own the newest technology to the casual buyer looking for a personal computer.

As usual, the Apple trademark of user-friendly computers is still present in their new G4 machines. The computer is very easy to set up ready to use when it is up and running. Older Macintosh users will immediately recognize the interface, as it is similar to previous computers. Not that it needs to be any faster, but there is plenty of room for more RAM to be added. Just don't assume that this is a computer for the die-hard Apple supporters. The Macintosh G4 would be a good buy for anyone in search of an efficient and easy to use personal computer. Give this computer a serious look, it won't disappoint you.
