One of those certainly would be useful for the music and sound
synthesis software that won't run on my fastest, older, Power Mac,
although the machine would be more enjoyable if it resembled a
PDP-11/45, was built mostly from TTL ICs and came with schematics,
firmware sources and OS sources. If I ever acquire one of those Power
Mac G5s, I'll probably apply a hacksaw to the handles on the top of
the case so that it will be a stackable machine upon which other
equipment, books, papers, tools, etc. can be stacked while it's in
use. :-)
