imac specs

Three levels

Good
20 inch model has only 256 MB graphics card and 2.66 processor. $1500
For DVD authoring, Mpeg Streamclip, Snapz Pro, tube TV it will be more than adequate.


Better

24 inch model bumps to 2.88 processor, 500 GB internal, and 512 graphics card. $2000
Faster transcoding, (but really how much faster?) Full Final Cut Studio Compatibility (including Motion 3). May be better for Second Life due to graphics card, but I will have to research.



Best
24 inch pimped out. But it costs $2500.
3.06 processor, 4 GB RAM, 750 internal HD. FCP editing and all things the Mac Pro can do.
