Re: Absolute BEST CPU set-up for 001
imp,
The new Power Mac G4 867MHz looks really tasty. That's the most you'll get out of a Mac these days. You can order it from Apple.com (Apple Store) and configure it the way you want to save money. Like, keeping the RAM at 128MB and buying a 512MB RAM chip from OWcomputing.com for $68. Buying the second HD (Maxtor or IBM DeskStar), for your audio, elsewhere. You could easily be ripped off in the Apple Store. I just ordered the 867 with a CD-RW (no DVD -$400) and no 56k modem for $2194. Actually, I got a 512MB RAM chip from MacMall.com for $75 with a $15 rebate ($60)!
I'd also look into the PC's. There's been threads lately with PC guys on 1.7GHz machines kicking some serious butt. They had they're machines heavily optimized from what I can remember. Though, I've heard, that the Mac will most likely be more relaible for the most part. Unless your a PC wiz for that matter.
Regardless, you can run alot of plugs on those GHz PC's.
Genuinely, Chris
