You mean a Mac like this one? Mac for $1500. It has the 2.4 GHz and 4G RAM. But Vagabond doesn't need anywhere near that much computer. VB, consider something like this HP for $500, or if you can live with one a $200 netbook. The latter is not as bad as you might think, I have friends who manage to use netbooks as their only computer. The display is small and you do not want to run MSOffice apps or video games on one, but if you can live without that you can save the money for a new camera lens (Kass and I are one-stop advisers for that too).
