Pros: Fast, Fast, Fast!!!
Cons: DVD audio/video out of sync until software update appears

My G4/400 Sawtooth is the latest G4's to be released by Apple. I'm a teacher and use my computer for music, video, databases, web publishing, serving web pages and doing flyers/posters. This machine rocks!

I took it out of the box, plugged...

Cons: Difficult to backup to CD-RW! Crash's when woken from sleep mode! Very Noisy! Imovie!

I have tried all of the new mac's after being discouraged with windows. Imac, power mac, 1.25, 1.42. I returned the last system, 1.42 $4200 with 17" monitor. I bought the mac to do video editing! Imovie is not what it says it is, thats only for making...

Pros: Ease of setup/use. Sleek and refined Interface.
Cons: There aren't any at work!

When I bought my PowerMac G4 (450 - 384 MB of RAM), I was prepared to tackle some serious DV editing. What I wasn't prepared for was the immediate ease of use. Coming from a total PC background, I had expected the learning curve to resemble Everest! To...

Pros: Fast, Very Fast, Oh So Fast
Cons: Fingerprints all over it from PC users touching it

Simply the best, better than all the rest... I don't usually quote songs but this is a good product. I'm a Graphic Designer and use the G4 for work. It's wonderful computer. I used PC's for years and love the G4, at home I have a G3 Blue and White and am...

Pros: too many to list
Cons: only comes in grey, matching monitors take up a lot of room

This was the best Mac I've used yet! I have been using Mac's for ten years and none has impressed me as much as this. Having a zip drive built in is great. I am at no loss for not having a floppy drive. It is MUCH faster that the 1400 Powerbook I...

Pros: Its a Mac! Ease of use and crossplatform capatibility.
Cons: G4's are stuck to OS9.

I have been using my G4 with 350mg RAM for about a year and have FINALLY worked out all the little idiosincracies with the OS9 platform. You need to update the system immediately and get the latest version of the DVD and CD drivers. Upgrade to as much...

Pros: Fast machine and ease of use
Cons: ????

I use Macs and PC's so this will be a fair review.

First this machine right now is best used by people who use high end graphic and scientific types of software that make use of the 2 processors. For those types of people this is fast. The...

Pros: awesome, fast, versitile, great apps, osx is the most stable os ever
Cons: none

I have owned many computers in my life, but by far, the G4 towers take the cake. I cant find fault wiht this system i loved every aspect of my computer. I could not have an easier time facilitating my graphic design projects. It is fast as hell. I was...

Pros: Fast, Cool Looking =), and allmost un-hackable
Cons: its a Apple/MAc

When Apple though of this ideal they hade to be on some drugs and imagined this, It is incrediable what this thing can do and the speed it owns. I am a long time Apple/MAC hater, i have allways hated macs from my jr high days when we had typeing...

Pros: Extreme cool factor, great specs, OS 10.1
Cons: Cost can be prohibitive

My Power Mac G4 Tower is, quite simply stated, the best purchase I have had the chance to make in my short life. My Tower (A G4 server edition, which I lovingly call DAMMAGE - The Dangerous Array of Macintosh Malevolence And General Entrophy) is speced...

Pros: Fast speed, easy to use, easy to hook up
Cons: none that i know of yet

My wife and I recently pruchased this computer. My son was the one that suggested I buy this computer. I am not a genious on the computer, but I find this computer very easy to use. So if you are looking for a computer to use and do not know what to...

Pros: Speed Picture
Cons: none that I can see

This beast has been in my home for lest than 24 hours and I'm completely blown away. The first thing I noticed was it's amazing graphic capability. The picture in the box is clearer than my television. I have never seen anything like it before. The...

Pros: the look
Cons: frequency of problems

I have had an opportunity to work with these computers as part of the journalism department at my school. When I first walked into a room I was awed by the look of the sleek new machines, but after several weeks of use I have decided that I should have...
