Thanks Pete. We live in an age where there is
no such thing as "being really ready for tomorrow".

I bought a mid-range Mac 4 years ago (G4
733mhz) and I'm still using
it today. I don't do video editing all day long
though, I just use
iMovied for editing videoblog posts. I've upped it to
1.2g gigs of RAM
ove the years, and I just got an extra 120 gig hard drive
and a DVD
drive to install. By next year I'll either try to replace it
with
another mid-range machine (I tend not to buy the top of the line)
or
I'll drop about $300 or so on an upgrade card to double the
processor
speed. Macs are pretty upgradable. The Mac I had before this
one
lasted 6 years, though that was stretching a bit.
