[QUOTE="hokiethang, post: 15099"] It depends on the amount of mobility you will need. my 15 inch goes everywhere I do (for the most part). If you are going to be doing most of your work at home or in one place, then the G5 is probably the best option. I personally think the 17 inch laptop is too big to be portable, but thats just my view. Photoshop works great on my powerbook, and its an older version. Just to warn you, Photoshop will look cluttered on the 15 inch, but exposé makes it a lot easier to work with than in windows. All of the machines should be more than powerful enough to do what you want, it comes down to what you want to do with it. As for the super/combo drive question, if you decide to get a laptop, and remotely ever plan on burning DVDs, I would get it built in. If you end up with a Powermac, then you can get a combo drive to save on cost, and I believe you can upgrade to a superdrive at a later date if you end up needing to burn DVDs. [/QUOTE]
