While this may be true if all you need is Scribus, for many that's just
not enough. Photoshop, for example, may be required - or Adobe Acrobat
Pro. Anyway, once you've paid for software that expensive, the hardware
(alas!) almost pales in comparison.

I'm no mac fan, just a realist... Linux and just Linux may not do the
job for everybody. Thankfully, it does for me with my needs :-)

(on a somewhat OT note, anybody know of some MacOS/X de-eyecandy-ifiers?
There's far too much I just can't turn off and it slows me down a lot
when working on it.)
