For most people, the money would be better spent on reading and typing lessons over upgrading. I know several people with top of the line systems who type with one finger.

Obviously, this machine is not intended primarily for web surfers.

You are saying something very relevent.

I learned photoshop from an Iranian who ran the program without ever using a mouse. All keystrokes and he was blistering fast.

I also worked with a magazine publisher where the graphic nerd sat four feet away from me. I'd post a text file to him and he had it formated in a PDF ten seconds after I dropped it into a shared folder.

His big dream was to own a G4 because every other machine was too slow for him.

He typed so fast you couldn't hear the spaces between his key strokes.

It's a good thing my talent was writing because if production speed was part of my job description I would have been fired.
