They are nice (I'm the mac admin at my school...) but I wouldn't classify them
with higher-end boxes like alpha's. They have some serious power, but the OS
is still 32-bit. (the stupid teacher won't let me put gentoo on it...)
At this point in time, the G5 is _not_ a "High power desktop," just a "Power
User Desktop." When Apple releases 64-Bit OS X (When is the next blue moon?)
I'll refute that argument.
Responding to Martin Joseph's comment:
||I notice your don't mention the Powermac G5 in you list..... Good idea
