The Power Macintosh G4/1.25 (MDD 2003) is a re-released version of the Power Macintosh G4/1.25 DP (MDD) (M8573LL/A) — due to demand from users who still needed to boot MacOS 9 — but configured, by default, with a single processor, less RAM, a smaller hard drive, and a DVD-ROM/CD-RW “Combo” drive instead of a DVD-R/CD-RW “SuperDrive”. It also sold for a much lower price, US$1299 instead of US$3299.
It was released on June 23, 2003 along with the original Power Macintosh G5 models and discontinued on June 9, 2004 when the Power Macintosh G5 (June 2004) series was introduced.
Please note that this model also could be custom configured with dual 1.25 GHz PowerPC 7455 (G4) processors.
