Advantages: CHEAP, good quality, OSX machine Disadvantages: Loud-ish Hard drive, incompatibility issues, bad onboard speakers
I am extremely impressed with my PowerMac G4 and have completely switched over from Windows to Mac. Overall my experience with this computer has been stressful but has payed off.
I got the computer cheaply at £2, i bought it for the sheer hell of it hoping to scavenge parts for other computers, turns out it only needed £30 or so to turn it into a running machine, and a relatively quick one at that. 1GHz Processor and 512MB of RAM. I am impressed by its speed when running OSX Tiger 10.4 and it is quite reliable and quick. i will stop telling a story and carry on with a more in depth review.
Speed:
The overall speed of this computer is fantastic for me, although i know its not the best of computers, there is minimal lag, and because i am a media student Mac is a big help, meaning no tricky file crossovers between college and home ...
Advantages: Cheap, Runs OS X, Looks nice Disadvantages: Noisy, Not That Fast
Apple are the best makers of computers and OS but if like me you dont have much money then the G4 is probably the one to go for, as it has all the greatness of apple mac at a much lower price.
I got my G4 off of ebay for a very reasonable price about 5-6 months ago and it was a great change from my old dell PC which was painfuly slow and overloaded.
External Issues:
The G4 Quicksilver is a very sexy and nice looking tower computer although some people dont like the sliver effect i think it makes it look sleek and proffesional, also some people dont like the fact that it is finished in plastic but i think this mackes it look nice and shiny. The clear handles are another nice effect as they distort any thing on the other side of them. One of the bad things about the G4 is that it is by no means silent and if you keep the original ...
Advantages: Easy Listening and Familar Songs Disadvantages: G can't think of any
I bought this album just before Christmas and I am so glad I did. My partner actual got it for me and had to choose between this one and their previous album. He also advised me that he had bought the one with the two diva's. I wondered who these two diva's could be. It took me quite a while to realise that he actually meant il divo....
Anyway, G4 came to our attention through the XFactor. They reached the final and it was a case of G4 v's Steve. They definatly had my vote. They are a group of four classical trainined singers. The great thing about them is to look at them they all look like four ordinary blokes. Nothing too special. The magic happens when they open their mouths to sing.
G4 & friends is the second album and because I have not heard their first I have nothing to compare it with but will almost certainly buy the first ...
