[QUOTE="vaughan80, post: 458532, member: 32638"] I was in the Apple store in sheffield, meadowhall - UK. That was the older (all white, big chin) mac, not the new one. I think he was trying to get me to buy a macbook pro once I mentioned video editing, maybe they get commission on any mac's they sell. As long as the graphics card is compatable with final cut studio, i'm good to go (providing they fix the link on the UK apple store for educational discount, it's non-clickable GRRR!!!!) Any ideas if it is? the card in the mac is: ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 256MB of GDDR3 memory but on the final cut system requirements it only lists: An AGP or PCI Express Quartz Extreme graphics card, ideally: ATI Radeon 9800, 9700 Pro, 9600 XT, or 9600 Pro ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 or 9600 NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT, 7300 GT, 6600, 6600 LE, FX Go5200, or FX 5200 Ultra It also states that: "Final Cut Studio is not compatible with integrated Intel graphics processors" IS the imac graphics card one of these, or is it stand alone?
