20" iMac Core Duo baby! With 2Gigs of RAM and 256Mb video upgrade, this baby is fast and furious. :D

Ditto. :p

Only... with 1.5GB of RAM.

*Walks away sulking*
 
Yep
2.0Ghz Macbook

This is my first Mac and its a breath of fresh air compared to my PC.
 
I have a 2 PPC (iBook and iMac) and intel Mini, the Mini is my main mac, with my iBook for on the go, and my iMac for back up, and some games

heh.. still have a 233MHz iMac Rev.A Bondi Blue. Runs like new. (Although I am hoping for a Mac Mini, as OS 8.6 is on it's last legs at Apple support.)

A new Mac Mini would definitely be a H-U-G-E improvement over your current 233MHz iMac G3 fatandlazy11. :)
 
Mac mini G4/1.42GHz
12" PowerBook G4/1.5GHz

The only things that are really slow are high-def movie playback and movie encoding... Apart from that I never really think "I need to upgrade".

On the other hand, I need to sell the PowerBook while it still has value (i.e. before Adobe releases Universal Binaries). :D

Good luck with that Yvan256, PowerPC based Macs seem to not be selling for their fair value with the switch to Intel- few people want to buy what they perceive to be "old" technology unless it is at a "steal of a deal" price. Although, you might be able to get a good price for your PowerBook G4 on eBay. :eek: :)
 
No, I'm looking to get a (hopefully updated) mini by the end of the summer, but for now I'm on my G4 mini.

Incidentally, this poll currently shows how skewed enthusiast fora generally are. :)
 
Yep, but I accidentally deleted the PowerPC architectures using Monolingual, so I need to reinstall OSX. Doh! at me. (This is my first Mac by the way.) ...and I kind of want the black Macbook now, so I might sell this in the near future to buy that one instead.
 
Running a G5 iMac, I actually ran a G3 400Mhz as my main machine from 1999 until about a year ago.

Ive been entering every contest to get an intel mac that i can find but the likely hood i will win is rather low so i guess i might have to get a job and pay for it myself.
 
Just one computer:

12 inch powerbook 1.33

Don't think I'll upgrade till there is a standard next generation type of media.....aka Bluray or HD-DVD
