I use a Mac G4 dual-processor 1.25 G with 1.5 gig of ram, an apple 21-inch cinema display monitor and an old Sylvania 17 inch CRT monitor alongside. The second monitor is nice for tools and windows. I have an 80 G internal hard drive and two external firewire drives: a 140 G and a 250 G. I print on an Epson 2200. The setup works beautifully, but if I were starting from scratch today, I'd go with a G5 dual processor 2.5 G with the biggest internal drive available and a 500G external firewire drive. I'd probably go with at least 2 G of ram. In fact, I'm going to add another 1/2 G of ram to my current setup. Paul > Hello again all, > > I thought I would tap into your experience again.
