The PM G5 is $80 or the hard drive is? If the former I'd say that's a huge steal. If the latter that's a ripoff

What would you use the desktop for?

Wait for an iMac G4. Those are also very cheap.

If it were a G5 then $80 is an awesome price. If its a G4 then it depends on the model. G4 Powermacs ranged anywhere from 350mhz single processor all the way up to 1.42GHz dual processor. I wouldn't pay for any G4 that didn't have a dual 800mhz processor or better, with dual 1ghz being even better.

i would chose the iMac g4 ,over the powermac g5 all day
they are cool and they are collectors items by now
they are still cheap, but i guess its only a matter of time before they go up in price again

if you can wait and can afford it then wait
until you come across the last model`s
as they had usb2.0 connections which is handy to have
the later two had even the biggest graphic cards with 64 mb
