All PCs at this time, haven't used a Mac since colleage, we're talking ainchient Mac classic (512KB RAM, one floppy, no HD) that we used for the colleage paper.

 

On the move and at work I use an IBM ThinkPad T42 (1.8GHz Pentuim M, 2GB ram, and 100GB disk), at home a sdelf built box based around an AMD Athlon 2800 with 1 GB ram and 1TB disk, being moved to a Dual core Amd64 X2 with 3GB ram and 3TB disk. Drives holding data are mirrored drives for fault tolerance on both old and new machines. 1 20" and 1 17" LCD on dual head AVI cards.

 

I'm giving the Mrs an iMac 17"/2GHz/1GB for Xmas and I'll be looking forward to trying it, I'm so fed up with windows messing up my prints I'm about ready to pop. I was very, very happy to hear from Guy that I can migrate my PS license from Windows to Mac OSX. This has been a big reason for my sticking with Windows - apart from tha fact that I started working with CP/M and DOS in the 80's and its what I know. However I just want soemthing that works. More and more stuff is web based anyway and it dosen't really matter where your browser is running. Check out Google Spreadsheets!
