Pretty good processor. IBM inside.
Though one problem, the graphics cards suck as does the operating system ;). Though, I do like the specs of apple. Hell, even I wish I had a IBM processor. They're 64 bit ones blow Intel and AMD out of the water.

You'd be playing Halo Mac not Halo PC.

Secondly, I like he new Sony monitors than the Mac ones now, they're absolutely stunning.

NO!!!

I m getting the OS "panther" installed on the G5.

Panther allows the user to use whatever OS they want. I will be using microsoft office XP
and panther also allows you to run micorsoft programs ona MAC computer...

Ie I will be playing all the kikass games. (CnC Generals, Halo PC, Counterstrike CZ, etc)

Also, dual 2 GHZ is different from 4 GHZ. The processor power is seperated, not combined.

And, I hope you know. MS owns Macintosh last I remember and there are already MANY office/Microsoft products for it.

The video card in that is disappointing for how much you pay. Only a ATI 9600.

There are more Mac Bungie games than HaloMac. In fact, many of them are better. Try the Marathon trilogy. You'll thank me.

You can emulate programs , thus running a lot slower.
So you wasted 8000 buck to play play old games?
