Which Powermac (G4/G5) to buy for YDL?

[J. Warren Rogers]

Just a couple more pennies worth here:

I'd either get a single G4, a single G5 or a dual G5 but not a dual G4. 
The memory speed is the bottleneck on those machines from what I hear. 
You just can't pump the data to them on that slow bus as fast as they 
could handle it, so they spend most of their time idling.

Go for the dual G5 if you can. Why get a Porsche when you can afford a 
Ferrari!
