Cool,
I've told her to get the cheaper one and spend £45 on 2GB of RAM from Ebuyer.com
Thanks guys!

My sister has been offered a 17", 1.8GHz, 1.25GB RAM iMac G5 by her boss for £125. What OS will it take? Will Leopard work? I know Snow Leopard won't. Also, will iLife and iWork 09 both work on it? I presume they will work if Leopard works? Thanks |

Leopard and iLife/iWork '09 will work, and shouldn't be too bad. Sounds like a nice deal. |

Cool, nice one! He also had a 2.0GHz G5 but with only 512MB of RAM for £100. But I suggested the one with more RAM as the processor ain't too important for browsing the internet etc... How easy is it to upgrade RAM in a G5 iMac? |

I'd take the faster CPU personally and throw some memory in it. |

I'm with Nick. Use the extra money to buy more RAM... |

Go for the 2GHz one and spend the extra couple of quid on RAM |

Remember that there is 2 version of the G5. One takes DDR and one takes DDR2 Depends on when it was made |
