[QUOTE="mr..nemo, post: 94843"] Im starting a graphic design degree, and im thinking of definitely getting a powerbook and possibly inversing in a power mac, although would a imac be just as good? i want it to last over my course period and into when i start working. i like the powermac dual 1.8, but my question is (is 1.8gb the total processor speed, or is it 1.8 x 2, makeing 3.6 the total??) also i usually batter the **** out of my computers and they only tend to last about 3years, would a mac last longer? hard drives. it seams every hard drive i fill up, eventually it becomes slow, event when i delete most things from the hard drive, is the common, do they just wear out? or is it a matter of needing more RAM? the powermac is a little out of my budget but i think i could stretch if i knew it was going to last and was convinced it would be a better machine than what im using at the mo. any comments appreciated .
