Primary Computer
Ten year old Mac G4 with maxed out memory- 1.5G, updated graphics card and OWC 1.4G chip. Two additional hard drives and a OWC superdrive. Tiger 10.4. It's been absolutely dead reliable. I hate to get rid of it but it isn't really fast enough for the newer Painter and 3D programs. And a lot of new stuff like CS5 only runs on intel 10.5 (stupid).
Primary Software
Dreamweaver 8, Fireworks 8, Photoshop CS3, Illustrator CS3, Indesign CS3, Acrobat Professional, Flash 8, Distiller CS3 Stylemaster, Cinema4D, Corel PainterX, Artrage3 Pro, Cheetah3D v5. I can't think of anything else I use but I have to have a minimum of 200 characters for this to work
What I'd Do Differently
- I'm being forced to go to a newer Mac so I can get CS5. I have a 24" Apple monitor which works great so I'll probably get another Mac Desktop
Input Devices (Mouse, Tablet, Trackball)
Wireless Logitech mouse, Wacom intuos3 tablet, Old Canon G3 which still works great but it's outdated. You can tell I don't like to spend money replacing stuff just because it's old!
Monitor Size and Number
Apple 24 inch Cinema HD
Other Peripherals
2 OWC (Other World Computing) external drives
What do you use this setup for?
Web design, graphic design, illustration, brousing, everything!
