I'm planning on buying a used mac. I found one with these specs :

  • 2.1 ghz intel core 2 duo
  • 1 gb 667 mhz ddr2 sdram
  • 120 gb of memory

Are the specs of that Macbook enough for photoshop/gimp, Adobe After Effects/Premiere Pro (or Final Cut)?

Googling the specs, I found this : http://support.apple.com/kb/SP5

If you want advice about what hardware has particular features or can accomplish particular tasks and can ask the question in a way likely to be helpful both now and in the future, you may ask that here, but questions about what you should buy ("let's go shopping") are off-topic. – Daniel Lawson♦ Mar 17 '12 at 21:37
well, I'm asking if the mac's hardware is enough to accomplish a specific task : photography... – Justin D. Mar 17 '12 at 21:53
In your case, this is on topic, but too localized -- you're asking about one very specific model, and it is unlikely to help future readers of the site. – Daniel Lawson♦ Mar 18 '12 at 3:35
