I bought myself an 8-core last year after finally getting rid of my PC. I've worked on macs for about 20 years but never got round to having one at home (mainly because of cost). I finally got the money together last year. I've never looked back, as you say a few Cinema4d renders a week and it's paid for as far as I'm concerned. I got more ram from OWC (I've 6 gig so far) though I'm still waiting on a 8800GT upgrade. Get that Cinema Display, it makes it all worthwhile :) They’re nice aren’t they!

You should consider using a DVI monitor with that. I can tell you that the difference is not life changing but after a while it's just one of those things that, when you look at a VGA screen, you think there's something dull and blurry about it :) Is that a DVI to VGA adapter you’re using?
