[QUOTE="mac57, post: 663056, member: 17052"] For the kind of work you are talking about, I would suggest that ANY portable is rather under powered. I would be looking at a high end iMac or at a Mac Pro. Don't go with less than 4 GB of RAM, and for major Photoshop work, it never hurts to have two hard drives (Photoshop uses on-the-fly scratch disks, and is more efficient if there is a separate physical disk for this). All of this would suggest either a Mac Pro or a second hand PowerMac G5 (you can add extra disks to both of these machines, and both will accommodate large amounts of RAM.. My 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
