Yes. The general rule I follow is "start with the highest quality you possibly
can, and work from there." Actually, come to think of it, that's the way I
work in my business, too. So far, the clients seem to think it's a good rule.

In terms of actual time, it's very quick, once you're used to it. And in fact,
the only reason some people see "little gain" in the finished product is
because they're also viewing the finished product on mediocre monitors or with
mediocre video cards (or both). Makes a *big* difference.
