Hi everyone,

I am currently running XP sp2 (with a whole host of design software) on a desktop machine and I have had an offer for a nice little iBook G4 with full Adobe suite pre-installed. I am getting into the graphic design market and know that Mac's are the way to go for this because of their immense rendering capabilities. Thing is, I've never used a Mac before and wondered how easy they are to get to know, and wanted to put it to you guys who may have used them for ages. Are they worth the investment, considering the new PowerMac's that are coming out?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks
