So, *all other things being equal,* I gave her the obvious answer: a dual will always outrun a single-proc, especially as regards Photoshop (since it can take advantage of that). I used the term "duh" as shorthand for "this is kind of obvious when one writes it out, but if you didn't know it, all current towers are dual-processor and therefore any of them are superior to the iMac G5." _Chas_ ------------------------------------------ Actually Apple is now selling a single 1.8 tower. To comment on the previous post: You don't need to get an Apple Cinema Display with a tower if money is an issue you can get a nice CRT or two much cheaper, or may already have monitors that you can use on the tower. -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
