    Hello,

    so I am shopping for a Zbook 15 G4 or G5. I have a G1 and G3 right now, both with the Dreamcolor screen (G3 has the 4k screen, not too impressed with it). I can save over a grand by buying a G4 on eBay with similar specs vs a G5. Any huge advantage to buying a G5? Would be looking at the higher end gfx card, IPS FHD screen (assuming dreamcolor is the same crappy screen as in the G3?), higher end i7 processor (any benefit to the xeons a lot of the G4's are coming with?). The G4's do NOT come with the 8th gen processors, correct? Thanks for any help or advice!
