Nat!'s Web Journal

One of these days we'll do a major overhaul of the site.

You can tell that I am not doing anything else worth mentioning in this weblog.

I don't see the point of the new single CPU G5, so the options are (monitor included in price):

The iMac 20" is comparatively really cheap. I could buy about two iMacs or more for the price of any of the Dual G5s. For the G5s the increase from 3.6 GHz to 4 GHz is 11% in Hz and 14% in $. The increase from 4 GHz to 5 GHz is 25% in Hz and 17% in money. The 1.8 GHz machines are a little more crippled AFAIK, still I think it should be either the 2x1.8 or the 2x2.5.

But does it make sense as a development machine ? It would be painful, if the iMac 20" would compile only a little slower than the Dual G5.

Any experiences or advice out there ? Is the iMac 20" LCD panel as good as the Cinema Display ?
