[QUOTE="PapaST, post: 670558, member: 8330"] I have a late 2009 27" iMac with Duo Core 3.06 Proc. I upgraded to a 1TB SSD and 12GB of RAM. I use it for email, browsing, plex watching, texting, remoting and some video conferencing. With those tasks it's a little bit slow but not bad. I however could not see using it for editing. I will admit I haven't tried Lightroom or Photoshop on it (I use a different computer for those tasks). Given the wait times for my normal day use I think the proc would be a dog for editing. A big reason I keep it around is the 27" monitor is just astounding. I use the thunderbolt connector to connect my MBP to it and use the laptop for Final Cut Pro editing on the big screen. [/QUOTE]
