Hi, Thanks. I'm on the budget plan and am wanting to learn the Mac and voice over. Would this Mac be a good starter Mac? Thanks. Dave. On 3/5/11, Scott Granados <scott@granados-llc.net> wrote:
Hi,
I wouldn't pay much at all. A new Mini could be had for 5 - 600 new and that has a much faster processor.
The G4 I think was measured in MHZ something like 4 - 600. It's basically an old RISC processor.

Hi,
Thanks. What can you tell me about the g4? I'm looking for as much as I can find on it. Also, how much would you pay for a used g4?
Thanks. Dave.

OK:)
So I'm running a bit more of a machine but you should still get some milage.
Mine is an I7 Macbook Pro 17 inch with 8gb of memory and a 500 MB SD drive.
I'm running OS 10.6 Snow Leopard which I know has had some voice over fixes applied. I'm not sure if you can run that on a G4. The G4 is a pretty old processor.

Hello,
Thank you. It's a learning curve, but i'm up for the chalenge. The Mac is an iMac G4 Desktop machine, I think it's a 1.5 ghz box. It is running OS 10.x 10.5.1 Leopard I believe.
Thanks. Dave.

Run and don't walk and get the Mac.
What kind is it and what OS is installed?
Macs are great, I've been using one for a while now and love it. Voice over is very functional, you can install your own OS, applications are accessible, and ITunes on the Mac is so much better than the PC.

Hello,
If there are any Mac users on this list can you please write me offlist? I'd like to know your level of Mac experience. I've got the opportunity to get a used Mac and am wondering if it's a good deal or not, wanting to expand my knowledge in to Macs.
Thanks. Dave.
