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, -Kevin Stone Stone Entertainment stone@enetis.net www.enetis.net/~stone
