I have a friend who works for a local community newspaper doing page layout. Her office is all Mac, but at home she and her husband have always had just PCs. I recently got her set up with an 8500/200 with 196 megs of RAM, and running Photoshop 5.5, Illustrator 9.0, and Pagemaker (can't remember which version - 6, maybe?) It runs like a champ and she loves it! I would *definitely* recommend the 8550 over the 6360. -- **** Amber Rhea **** [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://tangerinecs.com/~amber /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign \ / No HTML/RTF in email X No Word docs in email / \ Respect Open Standards! -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
