I may soon have the opportunity to pick up a PowerMac G5 Dual Processor 2.5GHz 2GB RAM machine for about the same price as a 2.0GHz 2GB RAM Intel Core 2 Duo. Should I opt for the Mini with Intel processors and only 64MB VRAM, or should I go for the PowerPC with the more capable video card? Are there any other important considerations for Creative Suite users?

Thanks in advance for your feedback and suggestions!
