[QUOTE="no0neelse, post: 118571"] I'm going to be taking some digital imaging and video classes in the fall and was looking to get my first Mac. Right now I can get the older 17" G5 iMacs with 256MB RAM and the nVidia GeForce chip for $799AR. My question is: should I bite? Will this mac suffice my video editing/image editing needs? I was planning to go with a mac mini, however I don't know how it will perform with programs like Final Cut, etc and figured a Mac with a dedicated graphics would be a lot better. Also, getting the keyboard/mouse/display all-in-one for only a couple hundred more doesn't look like a bad idea. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! I only have the iMac on hold for a week!
