Uh...no :)
It's a killer machine. Apple's flagship G5 uses a liquid cooling system,
uses a little radiator (made by Delphi) with a mini looking fuel pump to
pump coolant from to the processors back to the rad, where fans blow air
through it. It's got 8 gig of RAM, 1300 gig of HD (fast enough for
multi-track realtime High Definition video) and runs through Photoshop,
After Effects, and Final Cut Pro like nothing you can imagine.
If you do multi-media work, "fruit" makes pretty nice hardware/software. Am
doing a project at work in High Def. right now, Panasonic now has a video
deck that runs HD over firewire. It's killer for digitizing and outputing
back to tape (no bulky breakout boxes, etc)
I keep a couple of PC's at home for more mainstream type use, I love my
Mac's though.
