European Tribune - Comments - Monday Open Thread

Monday Open Thread | 64 comments (64 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

Writing this from my newly delivered 27" iMac, which will hopefully give my eyes a break from the laptop and small external screen I've been working on for the last few months.

Not to mention actually being able to put photographs in one place and process them in reasonable time.

I've been drooling over that ever since they put them out, but I just can't see the 4850 being up to the task on that resolution. By the time I'm up for a new desktop, it should be in good shape, though.

Apparently it's a real beast on processing power, too.

I don't do a lot (read any) 3D or heavy graphics stuff, and it's plenty powerful enough for Aperture.

Yeah, that's the issue for me. But by the time I'm out to buy one, I suspect we'll be up to 6850s or 7850s, which will probably be more than adequate.
