As a Mac user ..trying not to be partial...

Well honestly..maybe not..then again maybe the video-editing software 
you would use
would take all the advantage of G4..so who knows? what about DP 800 ? 
that would reaaly make videoediting fly.. plus you would have 
SuperDrive and capability to burn your stuff on DVD to watch at home 
? I know you can have this for PC too but the sofware isn't as good 
as Apple's at the moment..
Of course 867 will also have SuperDrive...
I do think you are a target audience for DP 800 :-)
Let's put it this way: I have a friend who works as a salesperson of 
professional audio/video stuff.
He had a customer who had a lot of trouble making his PC videoediting 
stuff work (don't ask me, I have no idea what the guy used). My 
friend just showed him how Apple works with FireWire and he was most 
impressed how easily the thing worked. I vote Apple :-)

Cheers
