[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1424571, member: 56379"] You mentioned "cost restraints". Do you realize that you're going to have to replace basically all software (non-OS based) that you currently use?? You're going to need at least CS5 (plus other programs you may use). Upgrading from a 2003-2004 G5...most likely running OS 10.5.8...to a 2011-2012 computer running OS 10.7.x...is a BIG leap forward. Basically...the software upgrades you need will cost more than the computer. This is a pretty BIG price tag on top of the computer purchase...which you mentioned already has cost restraints. - Nick [/QUOTE]
