[QUOTE="Cherokee, post: 549212, member: 28697"] I have a 20" iMac. The screen is not even close to what anyone would consider professional on any level. The 24" is much better, but still not something you can rely on for accurate color. It's perfectly fine for internet browsing, word processing, general tasks, CS2 palettes, etc. Using the Eizo as your work monitor would be the way to go. I have 4 GB of RAM in my iMac. It smokes on all CS3 apps. I often run Illustrator, Photoshop, Safari, iTunes, etc. at the same time. It's not an issue at all. So, you could definitely rely on an iMac in terms of speed if that's a concern. Of course, 4 GB is maxed out for an iMac. Upgrading RAM isn't an option. That being said, I'm sure 4 GB will be more than adequate when CS4 is released in the future. I'm pretty certain that the iMac will be a capable machine for a good while.
