Check out a performance evaluation using a real-world application. Apple compared the Power Mac G4 to a 3GHz Pentium 4-based PC, using nine commonly used actions and filters that...

The dual 1.42GHz Power Mac G4 is 32 percent faster than the fastest PC on the market with a 3GHz Pentium 4 processor. Fact is, even the dual processor 1.25GHz Power Mac G4 system outperform the Pentium 4 by 23 percent. How, you might ask, can even the Power Mac G4 outperform a PC with a Pentium 4 processor running at more than twice the megahertz? It's further proof that megahertz alone is a poor indicator of real-world system performance, particularly when comparing different overall system architectures. You do the math.

I personally have all ppc g4's in my house and the 775 MHz is so faster its like 1.25Ghz. Also these macs never loose any of there value and you can resell the mac if you wish not to keep it in the future.
The macs design is unlike any other PC on the market i have seen. Also the mac is brilliant because of its easy access to all the upgrades you would ever need to do if you so wish so. All Macs from G3 to the intel macs come with USB's this is a great feature which you cannot find in the other desktop PC from around the same time, so if you have a wireless mouse with USB just plug it in and it should work. Another Great feature of the Mac is its drivers are all installed.
