I have a 1.67 GHz 17" PowerBook G4 and decided to buy some pro applications to expand on a digital photography hobby. These apps include Final Cut Pro Studio, Adobe CS2 Premiere, and now Aperture. The idea was to really "get into it", more as a serious hobby though.

My problem is that I don't have enough time for furthering this hobby, and have a weakness for Apple products, so I keep buying stuff with the slightest amount of justification. So I bought a 30" Apple Cinema Display to help make the Apps more enjoyable. Then after new hardware was introduced, I bought a new Dual Core 2.3 GHz PowerMac, again to make the Apps more enjoyable.

The reality is that I need to scale down and I will put some stuff on eBay. I need advice as to what to keep and what to sell.

I have several thousand pictures on iPhoto and several hundred songs on iTunes, so I need to have a Mac, and it also has the capability to run the Pro apps.

One thought is to sell it all and buy a new iMac 20". Am I insane (again)?
Another thought is to keep the PowerMac and sell the rest.
Last thought is to keep the PowerBook and sell the rest.

Help me before I buy a Quad!!!!
