Best plug-in bundle for Pro Tools LE?

Archived from groups: rec.audio.pro (More info?)

I am looking to purchase some plug-ins for my G4 Pro Tools 6.7 system,
and would prefer not to spend more than $1600. My mixing skills are
intermediate, and my mastering skills are at a beginners level. I am
currently considering the following two options:

-Waves Platinum Bundle $1575

-Sony Oxford LE Bundle (Dynamics, EQ, Inflator) + Audio Ease Altiverb +
McDSP Analog Channel ($660 + $430 + $390 = $1480)

What do you guys think between the two? Any other
packages/combinations suggested? I am not set on the Analog Channel
for the second package and could substitute another plug-in in the
$400-600 range.

I believe the Universal Audio UAD-1 plug-in package requires a PCI slot
which my Powerbook does not have, so this is not an option without
considerable additional expense.

All prices quoted are from sweetwater.com
Thanks in advance for any and all feedback.

My understanding is that the Powercore plug-ins are VST, which Pro
Tools LE does not support.

Supposedly the Powercore will use the computer's(G4) processing and not
the DSP onboard if used with Pro Tools. Would be a little of a waste
then. Does not work like the UAD card with FXpansion.
