Thanks for the thoughts so far. I guess I'm not as concerned about everything becoming Intel-only since I've got an early '08 MBP to run any of that stuff I need. What I would like is an extra machine for video editing with Final Cut Express and massive hard drive storage space for all the HD video I'm shooting.
With the added cost and space-consumption of external drives, I feel like it'd be nice to have all-internal RAID arrays and video and backups, along with being able to backup and archive my work files, photos and iTunes stuff (I've got 80GB of iTunes stuff alone) from the MBP.
Sounds like I should see if I can bargain him down just a little bit.
