Okay... so I have to choose between the dual G4 867 mhz/ 512 ram or single 1GHz G4 w/ 512 RAM...

I will be running Cubase SX, Reason 2.0, some plugins w/ a MOTU 828...

Is it preferable to go w/ a single processor with more MHz (1G)or a dual w/ a little less (867MHz)? Is this a no-brainer?

Thanks for the advice. This forum will provide me with a wealth of information, thanks to you guys...

I asked this question myself over at http://forum.cubase.net a month or so ago and got the reply that just buy whatever you can afford now - single, dual, whatever. Either will be powerful enough to run a decent set-up, then you can always sell it later and upgrade if you make some more money. Seemed like good advice to me.

I was torn between a 1GHz PowerBook or a 1.25 dual tower. Still am blink.gif
