As I said before, I don't want to use Linux on this Acer. It's a mobile processor, so running Photoshop through wine would be like pulling teeth. For the past week I've been using my iBook for everything I was 'trying' to do on the acer. Even with the books intermittent trackpad issue, its still easier to use.

I might actually look in to the early macbook pro, I didn't know it could run ppc software! Thanks!
