This computer was used in his Studio for song writing and recording! He finally has upgraded his computer to a new one and is ready to sell it! It works great and has a custom autograph from Patton himself! This one is legendary! What a bad ass you would be if you had this on your desk!! Imagine what your friends would say!!! |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 18,2005 4:02pm - RustedAngel ""] funny, they dont' even mention any specs on the machine itself :spineyes: |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 18,2005 4:02pm - the_reverend ""] I hope he triple wiped the drive... |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 18,2005 4:03pm - the_reverend ""] "Imagine what your friends would say!!!" yeah "why the fuck did you buy a mac you moron." |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 19,2005 9:04am - anonymous ""] i'd buy it but not for the price they are wanting! Only a insane fan would buy it or someone with tons of loot. I just bought a PowerMac G5 this past weekend and it cost me $2500 for the computer alone. Another $1500 for the display. But its for my job so... I'm sure he pulled the internal out and i bet he used external drives. man anything to make a buck. |
| __________________________________ [Oct 19,2005 9:21am - powerkok ""] HAHAHHAH Only Patton would write 'Thanks for letting me fuck your dad" on a G4. |

| ___________________________________________ [Oct 19,2005 9:54am - ForgotMyPassword ""] only a fool would buy that. Macs are awesome but not the G4. Plus I don't want that phrase written on the side of my Mac by anyone! |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 19,2005 10:01am - the_reverend ""] I have a G4, but don't use it for anything. |
| ____________________________________________ [Oct 19,2005 10:24am - ForgotMyPassword ""] G4 was a good puter back in the day [2001] but today an iMac G5 will blow the thing out of the water. Plus I think it was running OS 9.2 then. I use to use one in college at that time. I remember 2002 was the big OS X craze. It was also the year my 'rents bought me my first iMac G4 lampshade. Used it through college and a year after college. Finally bought a 17" PowerBook G4 last year. Shweeeeet. |

If I were you I'd go back to the store and exchange them ASAP. |

| ___________________________________________ [Oct 19,2005 4:00pm - ForgotMyPassword ""] hey rev, what type of computers do you use out of curiosity? |

I'm curious to see how the Intel processor works out next year in them. And yeah a new type of screen would be cool and I'm sure they are working on that. Two mouse button (Mighty Mouse) is out. |

Your display now costs only $1300. They will credit you the $200 because a guy at work here bought a display last saturday for $1500 and he went this morning and they gave him the credit of $200. I bought a PowerMacG5 this past August so you can probably guess I'm 8^( |
