It's interesting to see how long Mac's can remain virtually current. 
I was just thinking about this with my G4/450 AGP, and now with my 
year and a half old Dual 2Ghz G5.

It is also really wild to see how they cripple systems as they move 
down the price ladder.  The sad thing is, most people no doubt buy 
them thinking they're getting basically the same system that was 
available a short while before for more, when they're not.
