  Just so I look unbiased...

  Both similarly speced. This looks to be the first time that Apple is in the ball park. Now if only they could get some better graphic cards...

  Apple G5 speced:

  • Dual 2GHz PowerPC G5
  • 2GB DDR400 SDRAM (PC3200) - 2x1GB
  • 160GB Serial ATA - 7200rpm
  • ATI Radeon 9800 Pro
  • 56k V.92 internal modem
  • SuperDrive (DVD-R/CD-RW)
  • Apple Keyboard & Apple Mouse - U.S. English
  • Mac OS X - U.S. English

  Subtotal $4,049.00

  Dell 650 speced:

  Dual 3.06
  2 GB 266 sdram
  120 GB Hard Drive
  40 GB Hard Drive
  nVidia Quadro nvs 280 64 mb
  4x DVDR
  3 yrs next day onsite (which rocks, by the way)

  $4,374.00
