I never got used to using a mouse and have been please with Kensington
track balls starting with my 1st mac 9 or 10 years ago.

From looking at the specs of the 1.8 Power Mac and the 1.8 iMac, I would
think they would be equal in speed. The dual processor PMs may be faster,
but I think the iMac has plenty of horsepower. When apps and the OS are
modified to take advantage of the G5 chip, we ought to see even more
horsepower unleashed.

I've been very pleased with my 20 incher.
