I don't understand all the advice given in here. The simplest solution I see to keep the old software happy would be to get a PowerMac or iMac G5. It doesn't have to be one of the latest even, because all G5 are faster than the eMac, and the older models are cheaper, of course. That will have to do until he can buy another, newer model (anything he can afford) and upgrade the software. That could go in two steps: first the hardware, sometime later the upgrade. No harm using one computer for Adobe and another one in parallel for the rest.
(Don: The newest OS supported on PowerMacs is 10.5.8 and that would probably be the recommended one. But 10.4.11 is good too and runs slightly faster. It must be my stupid day, but someone posted that 10.6 runs on PPC, which I can't understand either.) -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
