Hi All,
I'm wondering if anybody here could help me decide what to buy. I'm about to buy my first ever Mac, and have been looking at the models out there (and to be honnest hoping the prices would drop a little).
I'd like to use my mac for video editing, and ultimately for creating dvd's, as I've read about the iDvd stuff and that sounds REALLY cool.
Now I'd assume that because of this, everybody would say: "Go for the dual 800"... but it is quite expensive. Should I wait? Since i _do_ want to do video stuff... Or could I get away with the 733 or anything else?
I've been secretly hoping that Apple would do some real funky stuff in Paris, and combine that with "Look! We've lowered the prices of our Dual800's!"... But maybe that's hoping for a little too much (?)
I'd also like to know if the TV-tuners I've seen for Mac's are any good. I've caught myself drooling over the 22" Cinema Display. Would a TV-tuner do a descent enough job full-screen on something like that
(No, I wont be buying the Cinema display, as that would really piss-off my bank ;-))
Thanks in advance for any help/comments
