I was told that a lot of people had been prosecuted or something like that in the states, that's why the site was down for a while.

Finally biting the bullet and replacing my old PowerBook.

Bearing in mind it has a 1.67GHz G4 processor so anything will be faster than it, will I notice much difference between a 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, a 3.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, a 2.66GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5 and a 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 processor setup?

And what are the benefits and drawbacks of those options?

3.06GHz / 3.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

2.66GHz / 2.8GHz Quad-Core Intel

It will mainly be used for Photoshop and Illustrator work. And fuk.

That was another question I meant to ask actually, is there much of a difference (and will I notice it) between the ATI Radeon HD 4670 256MB and the ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB?

I want to future-proof myself as much as possible.

you might want to read this before you decide whether it's worth it or not:

I'd buy another 4GB of system memory over the GPU upgrade. You'll notice that way more than you will notice the benefit of a faster graphics card in photoshop.

It's just telling you what specific features of photoshop use the graphics card as opposed to the CPU. So it gives you an idea of what area you'll see (minor) improvements in by buying a faster graphics card

A lot less than you'll see by having a faster cpu and memory

perhaps consider eBay?

If there's nothing actually wrong with it I'm sure you could get it running well again. I have 3 macs older than yours and they all run fine. Have you tried anything to diagnose/rectify the problems you're having? My gf's newish macs was running v slow so I told her to get Onyx and run all the maintenance/cleaning - did the trick…
