Not mine, or works but a present someone at work received.

Its a lovely little machine, the 17" screen is plenty and its noticeably fast (this is a 1.8ghz version with 512mb RAM and a SuperDrive.

Seems to run quite warm but nowhere near like my 1.5ghz 15" PowerBook can run at and the fans (I think there are 3 variable speed ones) are quiet as.

I still think the white area at the bottom needs to be about half the depth it is and the visit in person has confirmed my view that if Apple had included some kind of scart connection and possibly a regular tv aerial connection theyd be flying off the shelves faster than no doubt they already are. Although you can get 3rd party hardware which can do the same. Of course as with most Apple products of late demand has not really been a problem, supply has, so of course price and value is unlikely to be a major issue anyway.

These are about £400 more than a decent TFT TV so its not far off TV value anyway, not withstanding the powerful G5 under the elegant hood.
