I'm very close to buying either a 2500 or a 3000.  My local dealer
suggested that I buy a 3000 for the cost/performance.  However I told him
that I was interested in the Toaster.  He informed me that the Toaster
would work on a 3000 except for the size.  I checked this out with New Tek.
Tammi at New Tek told me that they will NOT support the Toaster on the
3000.  She suggested that I go for the 2000 or the 2500.

Fine.  So I should get the 2500.  Except that one of the issues that first
attracted me to the 3000 was the higher resolution display.  What is the
highest resolution that I can hope to achieve on the 2500?  This is
including additional monitors/video boards that I can add on later.

My goal is to produce nice animations, both 2D line drawing (cell
animation) type stuff, and 3D Rendered stuff with the intent to go to Video
Tape (thus my interest in the Toaster).

Also, The same dealer is trying to interest me in Imagine.  It sounds good.
Is it?

While I'm in question mode: What's a good digitizer/pen model to go with?

Thanks in advance.  Please note my signature for the correct mailing
