[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1010011"] Any of the iMacs are way overkill for your described needs and will just fly in terms of speed. You can always add RAM later so save yourself some money now (maybe buy Applecare with the savings). Yes, 8GB brings some mild benefit over 4GB but not until you start using the really high-end software like the CS4 suite. If money's not an issue then yes, the high-end quad is a bit better future-proofed than the others but really all of them are fantastic machines way ahead of what most people on this forum have at the moment, so again you're VERY good to go with any of them.
