[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 865072, member: 38864"] The Mini likely is a fairly faster machine than your PowerBook G4 is. My main concern though is if Photoshop 3 will run natively on an Intel Mini. If I'm not mistaken, PS3 is pretty old and PowerPC-only (not a Universal binary), so running it on an Intel-based Mac, if it even runs under the Rosetta emulation, will be pretty lousy. If so, you could just consider maxing out the RAM on your PB to 2GB. It's possible you could benefit from a defrag and optimization. iDefrag works wonders in some cases. [/QUOTE]
