What is a better setup for doing tabloid size page layout in InDesign? Both setups cost about 2000 dollars and the computers would be about the same speed. Could you get by with the eMac? If the 22" monitor is the best option, which manufactor makes a good one for between 600 to 900 dollars? Price is the key concern, the system can not go above 2100.

    Go with the G4 tower & monitor. You've got more options for upgrades, you can get better color accuracy on a CRT vs an LCD, and you can do a dual monitor setup as well. How's 2 17" CRT's sound for page layout? LaCie makes an excellent 19" CRT if you do go this route.
