Hey Dave,

Well, provided that I can use my existing 19" PC moniitor on the Apple (which should be possible with a cheap adapter, yes?), I can spend up to about $1500 on the box. If for some reason I need an Apple-specific display, then that will have to be rolled into the budget. Naturally though, I want to save money if I can, so if a $1200 box will get me by, then that's fine. But if the $1500 box would kick it's ass, then it's worth the extra money.

When working with high-resolution graphics as I intend to, CPU, memory, and video card requirements will take precedence over features like speakers, power-drive, etc.

Thanks for any advice,

Alan "Hot Pastrami" Bellows
