WOW, you can spend a shit-ton of money detailing some of the larger Mac Pro models...WTF?!

Anywho, I guess my next question is capacity (memory). What kind of space & capability will I really need to ensure smooth transfer of my files? My lil' old Dell here only has the following, and it's over 4 years old, I think:

Intel Pentium 4, 3.20Ghz
1GB of RAM
160GB hard drive

I can't even find anything more specific on this old bird, but that's probably because I don't necessarily know where to find it.

Obviously, anything I get will be an upgrade, and there is no such thing as "the biggest & best" in computers, because this shit is outdated tomorrow. I just want something in the middle-of-the-field that isn't going to cost me an arm & a leg. I mean, I shouldn't need a fucking Mac Pro model as opposed to just the "screen-and-tower-in-one" I-Mac, or should I? Just screwing with customs, for shits & giggles, I built one Mac Pro model over $12,500...insane. Does anyone honestly get what they pay for at this price? Fuck, that's almost comparible to my goddam Yaris!



DELL has an online special on XPS with Intel Core i7 with 8MB of L2 cache, 6GB RAM and 750GB HD for under $900. Not too bad.

I have an XPS that I use for daily stuff but I also bought a MAC mini for $600 and it does everything I want to do as far as video goes. Good luck.
