hmm,
Well, I have a G5 that i use for imaging and some light sound and video stuff. this machine will be used primarily for biz paerwork, internet...some larger downloads, scanning and perhaps trnsferring older sound files from a roland digi workstation to computer based recording programs..I have to essentially re-record onto the comp because the Roland files are proprietary...lots of different stuff.
the thing is is that in the immediate sense, I will be using this for biz paperwork and internet stuff...in the furure I would consider taking some of the duties of the G% over to this one so I can multi task a bit more.
Im replacing a Beige G3 which is actually running smooth as hell for basic paperwork and internet...I want to get something a bit more up to date with Firewire & such plus be able to run OS 10 nicely. Classic on this has reached its limit, especially after being on OS 10...thats about it. the older G4 strains get very confusing and occasionally I see warnings about certain machines...
It is ver difficult to identify which of these machines is on sale when you see them listed because lots of folk dont know what they have and Im not tecched up macwise enough to know by straight specs..
Sorry for the long ass post...
thanks
