[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 280256, member: 21101"] Well you might want to buy the Mac here in the States (especially now you get almost $2 to the pound). I am British too but have lived in NY for a while now. You might get a bargain on a MacBook Pro Core Duo (now that the Core2Duo is out). Get at least a gig of RAM and you're set. I'd avoid a G4. It might seem tempting, but it's essentially 3 generations behind now (G4, G5, CoreDuo, Core2Duo). I can't imagine you'd need more power than a 2ghz Core Duo - even with Video editing, it'd do the job. Also the screens on the Intel machines are far superior than the previous generation. [/QUOTE]
