Now granted, I did make money on some of my projects. When I worked in politics, I was making about $1400/mo. Of course that was not enough to pay my bills, my debts, and keep up the hardware habit. So I didn't invest in all of it entirely for AMVs... I have now, of course, since I no longer edit professionally. The Macs, ironically enough, were all purchased after moving to Japan, so after I stopped being pro. *shrug*

not true... i've made most of my upgrade choices based on editing efficiency. when i start to feel like i need more speed, i buy new hardware. I also wouldn't purchase so much disk space. If i was a bigger gamer, then it would be a different story, but i'm not :P

Same here. Our second computer was bought for editing (It was time to retire the 1 gig bad boy and I was tired of vcr to vcr editing)

Of coarse knowing nothing about editing, except I needed to capture. I was assured this computer could capture. I'm sure the sales person didn't even know what capture meant >_< But I ended up with a really crappy free capture card....

Ya, everything in every computer I've owned, besides the 1 gig has been bought solely for editing.
