Pretty sure that with "biggest downside is the glossy screen" he meant to say "biggest downside - of the iMac - is the glossy screen". > ps: I know you were reading this as Macbook Pro but I think he meant a real > Mac Pro. If it is in the budget, I would go for a Mac Pro.

Note that you can get a top of the line iMac with as many cores, more ram, a larger HD and a 27" display for *cheaper* than the entry level Mac Pro (with no display). For most folks I'd recommend getting an iMac, it allows you to upgrade more often, and a better value for your money. Unless money is no concern, of course, in which case the Mac Pro's are awfully nice (I have one at work, and it's crazy fast). j o a r _______________________________________________ MacOSX-talk mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-talk
