Help, Need to know whether i'm making a good buy!!!

Sep 26, 2005 9:47AM PDT

Hey I'm a mac newb, i dont really know much about them, but i am dying to get one. I have been offered an Emac 1Ghz G4, 768MB Ram, 60GB HD, Radeon 7500, and a DVD/CDRW combo drive for $625. Is this a good deal? Also I am wondering if I install the Ilife '05 programs onto this combuter with programs such as imovie HD would it work on the computer?

Please tell me if you can help,
Graham

It's an excellent machine & that's a fair price. also, check out Ebay for 'similars' and comparisons on specs - got my Ibook there; very happy w' it. Good Luck.

I checked on ebay and found other 1GHz Macs for much less. Did you search this out?

On apple.com a new machine is not much more.
