[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1618978, member: 131855"] Attention fellow Mods: Feel free to move this to some other area as you see fit I put this in the notebooks section but the solution might just as easily be an iMac. Keeping options open so to speak. My niece called last night just before the Sunday chat started. She would like to get a first Mac and begin using iMovie to edit video for You Tube etc. Most video would be less than 10 minutes long but being able to do longer clips is a plus. She is into music as well so recording her keyboard through GarageBand would be nice. I haven't followed the new models closely other than when helping others on the forum. I vetoed the two machines she looked at in the refurb store because they only had 4 GB of memory. My goal is to get something which will be useful for a few years. Any thoughts on best hardware would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
