 After suffering through some slow iMovie sessions on my iMac G4, I finally took the plunge and bought a new Power Mac G5! I love playing around with video editing, and I'd like to do more of it, so that's the main reason I wanted to go for a seriously powerful machine. I just got it last night! It took no time to setup, of course, and soon I was really enjoying some serious speed - it was just amazing how cool it can be just clicking around and seeing things happen so fast. I got the 20-inch cinema display, too, and even though I've never been crazy about huge monitors, I must say that this screen is beautiful, and since it's so wide, it's like having two screens (easy to open Safari on one side and iCal on the other, for example). I stayed up until 1:30 last night just installing software I already own, moving some files from my iMac, and enjoying Mac OS Tiger for the first time (Spotlight is totally great!). I also tried out iMovie, and I know I'm going to love the rendering speed! My faithful iMac is going to become my dedicated iTunes jukebox now, and my Power Mac will be my media workstation. I've got to get my other Macs upgraded to Tiger soon, and there's plenty of goodies I want to get for the new Mac (including more RAM). I guess you can never have too many computers!Labels: life |
