Hi Tim, I work on several Macs, one is a DT G3 233, a B&W 350 and a 7300 233. I manage to do all kinds of graphics on these old world Macs; Mostly I do very good graphics on them. Anyone that thinks a new mac is an anyway connected with the Kind or Quality of graphics is only revealing their immaturity and ignorance of the graphics process.
I am in the process of getting one of those modern Macs but it will not make my work any better; But perhaps a bit faster. I will bet the same is true for Kathi Anderson.
