Can new iMac handle Final Cut?

[dandan]

I am looking at replacing my dead imac. Can the new imacs run final cut pro or final cut express or do i need a powermac. I am thinking of getting the 2.8GHz with 2GB and 500GB harddrive or would the 1GB be enough.

The new iMac will definitely be fine.

Agreed. Though storage could become an issue if you're working on a feature-length project (but externals can easily sort that).

Mine runs it just fine (2.4 GHz C2D. 2 GB RAM). But yeah, you may want to bump the RAM to 2GB, just to eliminate paging problems with the memory.
