I'm about to make the switch from PC to Mac and I have a question as to whether I should buy a 24" iMac or a 17" Mac Book Pro. I'm weighing more heavily to the Mac Book Pro because of the portablilty, but I am wondering if it'll meet my needs...I want to do some video editing on it and also some Photoshop. I am not a viedo editing professional so this would strictly be used for editing home movies. Is the 5400 rpm dirve in the Mac Book Pro fast enaough where I won't drop frames or should I go with the 7200rpm 100gb drive? I already have a 500gb LaCie external drive so this would be where I import the raw video footage and it'll be used as my scatch disc for Photoshop....
Also, Photoshop CS3 or CS2...I've read that CS2 is sluggish on the new Intel chipsets...
Any feedback would greatly be appreciated.
