I went to do a job for a customer at her home office and while doing work she handed me a G5. She was unsure what to do with it. I wasn't sure about the specs and I was kind of apprehensive about taking it (not very fond of G5s). I ended up taking it though. The specs are:

2x 2.3Ghz G5 (PPC970) non dual core

4.5GB DDR-3200 RAM

250GB Maxtor HDD

DVD-+RW DL (Super Drive)

Radeon 9600 Pro 128MB VRAM

Original Power Cable.

That's pretty much it. No airport card, no BT module.

I loaded up 10.5 on a set of WD 80GB Velociraptor drives (10K RPM, SATA II w/ 16MB cache I think) in a striped config (I didn't know OS X booted off SoftSTRIPED drives with Disk utility but it does)

This is the model with PCI-X and AGP 8x Pro still, So no PCI-E expansion and no PCI-E graphics. Boo!

It's also not water cooled so I don't have to worry about that.

Anyone know if an older final cut pro would still be usable on this system as a decent older editing system for video? or if I should just forget it?
