im so unsure what to do, need advice. i have a pb g4, which is perfect for photoshop etc... now i want to do more audio, video (final cut, shake etc... i know in august, there will be the new mac pro. but buying from the first line is not good... what u think?

always buy today...as tomorrow a new machine will always be stronger or cooler than what ever you get today..it is a never ending cycle...if you can wait...then get the next gen of tomorrow...but i say buy today and start having fun with your new toy.

and you can probably earn the price of the 'puter in between the new one coming out with your imporved productivity and the bizz of a nice new machine.

I bought a macbook (not pro) I run XP on it... and its as fast as the ridiculously huge Dell box at work that likes to die on me all the time and let me down and the most inconvenient times!
Keyboard takes a bit of getting used to though!

when i was in the apple shop, i played around with black mac book, damn that seemed to be so fast, compared to my pb g4 1,25... and it looks awsome... but i think the quad is faster....
