[QUOTE="Dialtone, post: 225575, member: 18325"] Thanks for the advice guys! :) In regards to the video editing, it's not going to be anything advanced or large scale...more along the lines of home vacation trips here and there. I see that Apple is offering a refurbished PowerBook G4 15" 1.67GHz / 512MB for $1,349.00. However, I'm seeing a new MacBook Pro selling for $1,644.00 after rebates. Is there that much of a difference in the performance of the Intel Duo versus the PowerPC processor? It doesn't seem that much more to go to a brand new machine. I have read on here about the heat and application issues with the Intel platform, but is it that common? Like I said...I'm new to the MAC world! :) [/QUOTE]
