    Hello.
    I have a question about mac computers there are good for editing in FCP. I’d like to start working as an editor but I don’t know ANYTHING about all these parameters in apple computers. I’d like to get one of those Imac – are they good for editing? I heard that Imac g5 is good enough – but i’m not sure if that is true cause they’re not so expensive. Please, help me to pick one – so I could start working.
    Thanks for any tips.

    Martha

    An iMac is very good as a training machine, but you should get an Intel iMac.

    The Digital Media Academy still has some I think at exceptional prices.

    But this may not help you if you’re not in the US.

    All the best,

    Tom
