I have to say that I have just released my 2009 reel maked on my personal 2gh core duo and 1gb ram! wooo that was a longest after effects and Cinema "rpg" editing ever;) I learned a patience, thats for sure;)But also I learned how to use low config in Cinema to short time render with not-bad look, there is no AO for exaple. I'm going to move to London to progress my skills and creativity more, I thing the best option for starting motion designer is hire to studio with their hardwares and render farm to keep it rolling. Its kind a problem to spend so lots of money for start in new place. Then i'm going to buy a iMac '27 in highest config and latter connect it to the Mac pro whit 16gb ram. What do You thing about this? I heard that AE needs 2gb ram for every core[?] so 8 cores needs 16gb + ram for system? Best greets Bart Hi guys!

Are you using 2 drives in a Striped RAID set up? is there an option to do an external raid out there? Curious about the internal RAID set up. Are you using 2 drives in a Striped RAID set up?

I have an internal RAID on my PC and the data rate is just barely faster than my single drive. I'm not sure if I will keep my internal RAID when I build a new computer...

I just have a slight question regarding the hardware topic. I'm looking into buying a new mac, as I too run out of patient waiting for my 1st gen Macbook-not-Pro to render a frame in AE. Of course, a Mac Pro would be wonderful and almost limitless in terms of upgrading and expanding. But it's SO expensive! I have been on a recent internal battle on jumping on those iMac i7's but I am aware of it's restrictions. Now, I don't work from home, but I think if I'm going to spend money on a computer, I might as well do it right from the get go. With that in mind, it's interesting to hear that Pasquale does 3D on a Macbook Pro and still is where he is. I guess true enthusiasts will make due with what they have... but a Mac Pro still is enticing :) Great episode, very insightful as always. I just have a slight question regarding the hardware topic.

Don't get me wrong I TRULY appreciate such a great and amazingly free resource like GSG. I just feel it's completely unnecessary and distracting to have the video intro's and thumbnails of Nick and other presenters throughout. Great stuff otherwise :) I agree with the above comment.
