We just got in a large number of G5's this Summer...I will have to see
what kind of quality these are.

iMac G5's are simply lousy with video problems. They fail so much
Apple should have recalled them. Here's a recent picture of our tech

Don't buy an iMac G5, they are ticking time bombs. We get about a
60-70% failure rate. Seriously.
