Music from hard drive better than CD?

Hi folks, I'm considering to buy a MacIntosh G5 for using it as a source in a high quality audio system. Will the Mac outperform the best CD-transport/DAC combo's simply by getting rid of jitter? It surely will be a far less costlier investment than a top transport/DAC combo from let's say Wadia or DCS, hehe. What is your opinion?

Gordon Rankin's Cosecant USB Computer DAC with a small iMac laptop appeals more to me. We will see what Gordon has up his sleeve this year, but the sound he was getting through this system (combined with his very nice amps) at CES2004 was enthralling. Perhaps you can pick up some useful information from http://www.wavelengthaudio.com/Cosecant.html
