Slightly off-the-wall idea for getting a new Mac...

My old G5 is doing it's job quite admirably still, but I can't help
thinking that this lot is wasting lots of electricity (it idles at over
300W)

I haven't any spare money at the moment either, and need to look at ways
to save costs. I just had a thought, I wonder if the latest Mac Mini
would now outperform my old G5. I could get a Maxed out Mini for about
what my G5 box is worth.

I'm currently reverting back to using iPhoto, and no longer using
Aperture, so high end performance isn't a priority, although the specs
of the Mini means it should outperform my G5, and be much more
economical to use.

Thoughts?
