[QUOTE="pesto, post: 885876, member: 56050"] My G4 was purchased new when it first came out and I am still using it although with a Leopard OS. I use PhotoShop and other Adobe products, making graphics up to billboard size. However, lately most upgrades or even new ones to programs I use will not work on the G4, like iLife 09. I cannot afford anything but a Mac Mini right now and I am wondering if anyone knows how well it handles applications like Photoshop, Illustrator and inDesign. After reading several reviews of the Mac Mini it seems the best purchase option is the $599 with a memory upgrade plus adding a firewire external and booting from the external. That is all I clearly understand from the reviews. Any opinions? [/QUOTE]
