[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 792602, member: 56379"] Thanks a million guys/gals for all of the feedback...including the specific answers regarding the video cards! Here's a quick conclusion to the purchase decision. The two options were: - 2007 Aluminum iMac 24" display, Core 2 Duo 2.4ghz, 4 gig ram, 320 gig HD, ATI 2600 XT Pro 256mb graphics, with warranty thru 2011 - 2006 Mac Pro "Quad core" (2 x 2.66 dual core Xeon), 3 gig ram, 230 gig HD, ATI X1900 XT 512 mb graphics card. No remaining warranty. Prices (local Craig's List): - $1000 for the 24" iMac - $1050 for the Mac Pro The 24" glossy display of the iMac is beautiful...but I purchased the Mac Pro (guess I can purchase a nice glossy 24" monitor later)! Thanks again for all the help, - Nick [/QUOTE]
