You're correct, most monitors work with all Macs. Some require adaptors so check to make sure. Good luck.
As for what is next for the Power Mac I wouldn't believe anything I hear. I guess that's why I love rumors.
Got a tip for us?

buy now or later
hey i'm a student and was looking at getting a new powermac because i do not own the one i am using...
i was going to get a 733mhz, 60gig, 512 ram, cdrw...
does anyone know how long it takes to actually get the machines? i know it says 2-5 days ground, 2 days fedex and so on, but they have to build the machine and i was wondering how long that one actually takes
and all these rumors about new powermacs...how long does it usually take to get a machine if ordered right when they are released?

Re: buy now or later
There are many places to purchase your Mac. I'd try one of the on-line sites or, better yet, get their 800 number from the site and call them. You can check MacMall MacWarehouse, MacZone, etc. They are all reliable and have good prices if you don't want to shop around. By using them you do not have to pay sales tax. They normally have the computer in stock ready to ship -- another reason for calling, you can check availability.
You can have next day delivery if you want to pay for it. It's not that expensive -- maybe $35.
As an enrolled student you can buy a Mac from your school's bookstore or you can use the educational protion of the Apple Store -- part of Apple Web site. You normally get a couple hundred off but you may have to pay tax. You'll have to document you are an enrolled student.
All Apple computers are built at plants and shipped to distributors and stores. They are not build special unless you order them speical -- something you will not have to do.
I hope this info help.

PCI slots position
Is it me or does it look like the PCI slots are postioned so that they are on the top of the case. Is this a new thing for apple. Also how is that fan that is pictured supposed to vent the case.

Re: Re: buy now or later
i know all that...i'm actually buying it special from apple because they don't actually sell 733 processors anymore smarty pants...it's made for education only...
i can get that tower for roughly the same price as a new imac with a 40 gig and cdrw and like 128 ram so i figured i would shell out a little more and get a monitor too....
what i really want to know is if there are delays between order placement and shipping date because a lot of times that happens where it's ordered and then doesn't ship for a few weeks due to demand/construction

Re: Re: Re: buy now or later
chill out man...I think he was just trying to help you get a good deal
anyway, Apple is usually pretty accurate with their ship times (sometimes they are even early) My guess is that these machines aren't being made "special" for education, but are old stock they are trying to clear out in a channel that needs good deals due to lack of funds. Once they are gone, they will probably remove the 733 from the available product list.
It does look like a good deal, that is a great price for the box.

For all of you looking for case pic, look here http://homepage.mac.com/johnnydoefield/733.jpg
Heh, right under Apple's nose.

thanks man. But I think I just lost my breakfast. Ugh... those things are pretty nasty. Maybe if they just removed the front silver panel it would look MUCH better.
Re: don't be to quick to doubt
My, my. I guess you'll have to get over it. I'm sure noone will hold it against you.

Re: Re: Re: buy now or later
What's this "smarty pants" stuff. Just trying to help. Maybe you need a new attitude to be in this discussion. Still in an effort to help, how is anyone but Apple to know if they will make their ship date? Why not ask them?

Having looked at the pics of the case over the last few days, what can one say? As a design it's obviously evolutionary, rather than revolutionary. I suspect the same is true of its insides... It is (we're told) still a G4, after all. Unless that massive cooling brick really is heralding a some surprise, this model should just be seen as a (very large) incremental update, rather than the real Next Big Thing. It looks like we have to wait a bit longer for that.

Re: Re: zip drive?
Except for those of us that have the Zip internal. You know, I got the CD-RW internal, then the Zip, so less crap on my desk. My guess is that an adaptor will be included or available to install a Zip in the extra bay

These are getting pulled down everywhere they go up. Man, why would someone put something like that on their .Mac account is beyond me. Anyway, we only have about two weeks left to find out.
