[QUOTE="fiz, post: 29524"] Hey: I'm new to these forums as well as the Apple world in general, so i'm rather lost as to what would be the best machine for me. I'm a frugal student, so I'm trying to go for the minimum for what I would need. Particularly, proecssor/RAM combos. There are some good deals out there for loaded 867mhz G4s. So my question is this: I primarily use photoshop, matlab and mathematica -- would 867 mhz (with, say, 640 mb of RAM) suffice for a Powerbook, or would it be worth shelling out the extra dough for, say, a 1.25 ghz one or at least a 1 ghz one? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
