PS/CS-2 addresses most of my issues that were needed in PS/ CS.  I've 
heard ugly things about Aperture already and can't imagine that Adobe 
wouldn't kick up a better solution to anything that Apple would do in 
the (still photography) post-production dept.  Either way, most pros 
will still have to use PS for the vast majority of their final color 
and retouching, so why add yet another piece to the puzzle?  I think 
it's great that Apple dove into the market to serve photogs-- it will 
keep Adobe sharp.

What issues might I  incur by having both SCSI and IDE drives 
internally?
