	Out of the two computers which were suggested, I would strongly 
point you in the direction of the PowerMacintosh 7500.  Although probably 
slower MHz wise, the 7500's graphics capabilites blow the Performas out 
of the water.  Peforma video performance has always been known to be 
deliberatly slower due to price concerns.  However, in terms of graphcis 
capability, the 7500 may actualy be too much... I say that because it 
comes standard with S-Video In, allowing you to record video from any 
video device.  If you're not going to be using it, I would suggest the 
PowerMac 7200 or the upcoming PowerMac 7300.  
	I've owned a 7500/100 for over a year now and I'm more than 
impressed with it.  Although it's not the fastest Mac, it's got to be the 
most well designed.  It is processor upgradable ($99 to upgrade to a 
120MHz 604), and PCI card and RAM options are almost unlimited!  It's a 
great machine.

Hope that helps,
