[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1233991"] The iMacs have JUST been upgraded with all the latest tech, and represent an improvement of over *70 PERCENT* over the last Core2Duo models, and that's just measuring processor speed (they also use faster RAM, a better video card and so on and so on). A Mac mini is a solid choice for a low-budget option, but not a sound choice for a long-term investment (at least not at the present time). The iMac is a FAR superior choice at the present time in every possible respect except size, and represents a FAR better value for money spent at this particular moment. The Mac Pros are due for an upgrade this year, but nothing you've described remotely approaches the need for one. When you see that LED-backlit 27" screen your eyes will bug out of your head and your pulse will quicken. Seriously, go visit a store and ask for a RAW file demo. Or just take a thumb drive with some RAW images and have them show you around. [/QUOTE]
