I used to be a 'semi-pro' photographer (this means occasionally I would take a REALLY good picture and try to sell it. I have had a couple photos published in the Hartford Courant Sunday magazine and few in the Boston Globe Sunday Magazine, and numerous others in local papers). Although I don't actively pursue it any more, I always have a camera at the ready, both digital and film. My digital is an Olympus 6mp, but I still like film better. So I get the film developed and digitize it and then do my darkroom tricks on the computer. A faster processor makes the transformation happen a lot faster, but I don't have $200 to spend on the processors I want, so I clock the hell out of the ones I can afford. I put my money more in memory and better video cards, but still not top-notch cards. I usually stay one or two steps back for cost effectiveness. If I were more professional about it I'd have top-shelf stuff, if the 'hobby' were paying for itself.

I also take songs my band has recorded and clean them up, and some of the processes take a loooooooooong time with a slower processor.
