i would have gotten the new g5 but it wasnt out when i was in the market.... but im willing to try the hard drive dump so if youll let me know how i will do it cause i have a friend that has linux
that is the iMac g5. the thing i dont like about iMacs is, you cant upgrade them, and if one component dies them the whole computer is dead. thats why i prefer the power macs any day, more horse power, more releible, and you can upgrade em.
yeah, do what mac dude said, anoth idea would be to find somebody with a powermac and hook your drive up as a slave and then copy the files over. but chances are you can find some one with linux easier than you can find a powermac.
