Folks,

I need help in choosing / deciding if I need to upgrade my machine or not.

My current setup:

G4 400 Mhz Graphite Tower (AGP)
1GB RAM
20 GB HD + 45 GB HD
DVD/CD
Internal Iomega 100 Zip Drive
USB, Firewire, Lan, Modem
Apple Pro Mouse
Logitech Internet Navigator Keyboard
OS 9.2.2
Wacom Intuos 2 (9x6)
Kodak DCS 760
Viewsonic PT775 17"

My application and usage:

We are primarily a print-based graphic design company. That means, we are
about 95% Photoshop, and 5% Freehand, etc. Occasionally, we work on
multimedia and web projects. We are also into Digital Photography (in Studio
and on Location)..that explains our heavy requirement for image processing

Dilemma:

I just don't know if with our applications and usage if we will benefit from
the Dual 1/1.25/1.4 processors or are we better off with single processors.

Any advise is appreciated. We simply want to maximize the machine's
potential...and don't want to overbuy something that we can't fully utilize.



Cheers and God bless!
