[MacDV] refurbished G4?

[Thubten Kunga]

Dear Shirley,
If you can just hold on just a few more weeks, you will be able to get 
a dual 1.25 GHz model for the same money and iLife and FW 800 and other 
enhancements. Or a better dual GHz with the above for $1699 new. The 
next generation Tower will be announced in less than 60 days. So I say 
pass on the old refurbished and wait for the next refresh which will 
give you more Mac for less money.
