Mac Mini & Adobe CS3

[mojopixel]

Hello,

I am thinking about switching over the a Mac. does anybody here use adobe CS3 on a mac mini? if so do the applications - flash cs3, photoshop, dreamweaver - run smoothly enough to design animations & manipulate photos? or would it be better to plum for a imac or macbook?

thanks for your input

A mac mini is adequate for photo work; I routinely run Aperture and PSCS3 concurrently. Can't tell you about the others as I don't use them. Just make sure you get 2 gigs of RAM since the Mini uses 80 mb of your RAM for video.

yep, I should get a mac mini and as soon as I do apple will refresh it!

The Mini can manage those programs no problem. To be honest, they're not exactly demanding. You could run Photoshop on a 450Mhz G3.

I'd recommend 2Gb of RAM if you can afford it.

The Mini's do tend to load up programs a bit slower because of there 5400RPM hard drives, but once they're up and running they're fine.
