PowerMac G4
I am doing a school project about buying a new computer. My computer of choice was a Mac for its graphic qualities because I am going to school to be a graphic designer. After figuring out what kind of system requirements there were on the software I will be using, I have found I will need either a G3, G4 or G4 dual processor. Well, I don't really need a dual processor and would like to not have to pay for it if I don't have to. However, I cannot find any information about the PowerMac G3 or a single processing G4. Which leads me to believe that my failure to have knowledge about Macintosh computers has yet again screwed me over. *sigh* Well, if anyone can please point me in the direction of a webpage where I can find the system specifications and also some pricing information for a PowerMac G3 or a PowerMac G4 (single processor might I remind you), it would be very very much appreciated!

Click on 'store' tab. Drool.
Plenty of nice machines with fair specs.
Sounds like a new imac is up your street...monitor included!
Or you could try the low end Power Mac. Plenty of bang for buck.

Some other notes:
The only G3's that Apple sells are the iBook and the CRT iMac. With the coming/present mass adoption of OSX, I would try to get a G4.
You may still want to consider one of the (slightly) older dual G4's (such as a 2x500) if you plan on doing a lot of Photoshop stuff. OSX will appreciate it too.

Sorry, this is a bit old, and I lost the other links that would have been a help. But this should get you started, and you can do some google searches for what you need.
Good luck!
