If it were me I'd opt for the G5. The fact that YDL is beta for the
G5 tells you that they are trying to support it. I think I even
remember reading a post by Dan saying that he had it running on one.
Partition your drive, put Ten on it and use it until there's a
stable version of YDL. When it is released I think you'll be
glad you did.
I've never heard of anyone wishing they had a slower computer. :)
