  • Imac G5 2.0 and iLugger sounds great BUT…

    Posted by Fernando Gutierrez on September 14, 2005 at 4:04 am

    Guys…
    I’m planning to buy this Imac G5 2.0 with some extra RAM and the iLugger.

    the question is:
    does the 16:10 monitor of the Imac will “change” somehow the images I’m seeing/editing?
    I’ve seen that this Imac work with 1680X1050 resolution.
    I’m planning to work with standard DV and also HDV, but not that much work on HDV.

    am I gonna have any trouble with this Imac?

    need advices befor I get it.
    today, I have a Powermac G4 Dual 1.25 and using a 19″ CRT display with 1280X1024 and sometimes 1600X1200.

    thanks

    It shouldn’t change the look of the images… however why are you doing this at all? do you need the portability or?

    well, I have worked on a HDV project and my dual G4 didn’t have realtime on that. and I had to waste time on rendering.
    portability is not the point.
    and a powermac G5 will be expensive to me, as I live in Brazil and Apple Stuff here is so much expensive.

    if and when I’m going to buy a G5, it will be in US and bring it with me downhere. even with my travel expensives, the G5 will be cheapper.

    I really wanted a Dual 1.8 or 2.0 Powermac G5, BUT… no money for that.
    and a thought that a Imac G5 would be perfect to transport it here and will increase the speed of my work.

    any comments about that?
    suggestions?

    thanks Jerry
