hardware hell/studio clean

i've disembodied my PowerMac G5 and taken it to be resurrected. resurrection takes 7-10 days and requires a $65 deposit. it may require additional time and/or materials, at additional expense. in lieu of waiting, i have purchased a replacement machine, a bit faster, more memory, dual processor which will arrive friday if all goes well. i pondered buying a brand new machine, but then realized i'd have to buy a new version of final cut pro (video editing software), new photoshop, and god only knows what else, for something like $2000.

while i was at the apple store i noticed the 23" LCD screens have dropped in price dramatically, making me salivate. i bowed but didn't bite.

what shall i do without a machine? i think i will clean the studio.
