I will be doing it lots. And I do want it to be very professional. Not close to or nearly as good as buuuuuut on par and better than that in the shops already.

I've given permission for picky to spend money on a new media computer. Think he will be looking for advice what to go for.

Afterall, you gotta spend money to make money.

*watches money drift away for the mean time*

Oh yes - and the thank you was to everyone! I just wanted to thank dym for his help as well as massively for making me come back down to earth (and saving me pooping on the poota)

Surely some cheap ass Members Market second hand stuff to max out that motherboard processor and ram wise as well as a new *clean* install of windows would do fine? How did people get along in the past? When computers as dual cored as todays are weren't around? 300dpi isn't *that* taxing surely?

Depending on the mobo, (i assume) it can take ye olde athlon 3200+ (400mhz fsb) bang 2gb of 400mhz ram in that machine and you should be pretty much on the way. Even if you threw away your current processor and ram, and just bought new (second hand stuff) its not gonna cost much more than what £120ish? Then you could sell (albeit for buttons) your old processor and mem on the MM. Pick up £30-60 something like that iunno? And if you really need to (but i highly doubt) grab a new graphics card, 9800pro.

//Edit and after a little searching, this isnt bad but probably already sold...

Im sure the main thing is just a clean decent copy of XP though?

If you want to save money i'd look into that first. Or if you want a whole new PC still look on the MM, for just the base, for instance *here* but thats a gaming monster (ie expensive graphics) that you dont really need, but much cheaper than whats out on the market...
