Has anyone upgraded from this machine to a Mac Pro and seen a dramatic performance increase? I work mostly in Photoshop (waiting for CS 3 from amazon) and Painter X. The G5 truly feels slow in Painter.

Thanks!

Feeling slow is a subjective issue, but that should not be a "slow" machine by any means, especially since Painter is a PowerPC app.
I do not like those green links and spam.
I do not like them, Sam I am.
