I don’t want to brag but I got this smaller “Mac Mini” in 2023.
I bought the PowerPC G4 one on the side in 2024 though (to run #MorphoS).

My G4 Mini is temporarily acting as a wireless access point while I'm looking for a router to replace my dead one 😂
A solid machine — it's 20 years old at this point and somehow… it still runs!

Cheap enough TBH, I have this Mini running 24/7 — my Pleroma instance, print server and bittorrent seedbox are hosted on it.
I sometimes think of using this PowerMac G5 Dual I have collecting dust in the corner in its place. Do you have an idea how this machine fares compared to the Mini in terms of power consumption?
@gyptazy @santiago
I could really use a more powerful machine with more storage and RAM, but G5 being a serious blow to the power bill is a legend, so I'm somewhat reluctant to make the move 😅
