    just bought the aluminum imac 20". i have my 20" aluminum cinema display as an extended desktop. 2.0ghz, 2gs of ram.

    vs. my 15" pb g4. 2 gigs of ram.

    both with the latest os and cs3.

    everything is faster on the imac. tiger was made before intel so on both machines, the os runs well, but faster and smoother with the intel and 2 processors. everything works nicer on the imac, the screen is sick, and about a third brighter than the latest cinema displays.

    cs3 will run on the older chips but it definitely wasn't made for it. cs3 on the intel is faster. no question. if you are having problems with the type tool in ps, you need to do some os/ps optimization.

    they really do want you to buy new machines. the new machines are sick. and just get better every update, in my opinion. great thing is, the old shit always works. macs are like roaches. killable, but hard to kill. if you are good with your kit, you can cultivate your little family of macs for generations.

    my op.
