[QUOTE="Brice0501, post: 268959, member: 21823"] [B]thanks for the advice guys.[/B] my biggest concern is running non native apps such as all my Adobe apps. I am about to finish my last qtr at graphic design school so I need a stable quick machine. The apple saleman assured me that even running through Rosetta my Adobe apps would still run faster than my 17" powerbook with 1gb of RAM, is he just blowin smoke? [B]as of now here is my configuration[/B] Both Bluetooth 2.0+EDR and AirPort Extreme One 16x SuperDrive Final Cut Express HD preinstalled Accessory kit Two 3.0GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon Mac OS X - U.S. English 500GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s 2GB (4 x 512MB) ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB (2 x dual-link DVI) Last question, is there a place to find final cut express HD cheaper than $149? [B]again, thanks for the help[/B] B [/QUOTE]
