Good minds think alike.
This is an excellent idea.
Please consider the $50 I pledged for the mac mini also valid for the G5.
As a G5 owner I may be persuaded to even increase this pledge if necessary.

due to the overwhelming sucess of the "Get a minimac for ben" project and requests now for getting him a g5. I have now decided to ask for interested parties to make pledges towards buying ben a g5.
The best option is to buy him a new imac g5 17" 1.8ghz which will cost us$1500, or for the same price a single cpu power mac g5 1.8ghz or for $2000 a dual powermac g5 1.8ghz
the imac has the advantage of having a monitor etc all in one. the dual powermac gives ben something fun to fine tune smp and calculate pi to millions of decimal places. which always amuses me.
Please discuss this matter. I think bens feedback would be handy.
So anyway. pledges come forward for g5. Any previous quasi-pledges (like, people who said, ill pledge if we get a g5), please confirm your pledges. Also be clear as to if you wish to withdraw your macmini pledge.
Please note that i am not pledging towards the g5. not that im tight, just that the macmini is of interest to me, not the g5, but im happy to facilitate.
Also note i have contacted ben to finalise the macmini project. If he can get back to me well get it rolling.
