Oh, I so hear you about dreams of IMacs, I did a lot of audio-visual work at one point in the past, and those Apple people know a thing or two about making a product that excels for work in audio/video/photo editing area. I so hope you get one before long, the world needs even more of your awesome pictures!
I do have an iPad and I love it, albeit it is a couple generations older now and is starting to get tempermental, so I think we both should just get a bunch of new I stuff all the way around...
Come on Hive! Moon! lol!
