Hi there,
I do occasional video editing / DVD authoring for events and I need some opinions on what to buy.
Should I:
A. Buy a fully kitted out 20" imac (Core Duo, 500GB HD, 2GB Ram & 256MB Graphics) from the Apple store.
B. An ex-demo Dual 2GHz G5 Powermac, 160GB HD, 1GB Ram, GF 6600 256MB with a New Dell 24" TFT monitor.
Both come in around the £1,500 mark.
I already own Final Cut express 2 and plan to upgrade to HDV later next year.
Key points I'm considering: 20" (non HD?) v 24" (HD ready) displays and Intel Duo vs. 2 x G5's.
Which is the better work-horse?
Cheers!
