Looks great and the price is finally right. You have to pay the same price if you build a pc with same parts. However, there are not enough universal binary audio applications available yet to take full advantage of the new mac. For example, half of the plugins I use wouldn't work at all, neither would my dsp cards + plugins. Anyway, I don't even need more power right now. I'll be using my g5 as long as it keeps working. :D

Seems like both camps are being stuffed at the moment - the apple guys with lack of universal binaries and the windows guys through lack of Win64 drivers and apps (though the apps arnt so essential).

FFS vendors - get yr fingers out and get the apps and drivers sorted allready!!!!
:evil:

never mind the Mac Pro, get all the new features in Leopard, plus more to come.
Still, the machine is awesome, imagine having enough dough to get max-spec !!!!

I hate the fact that everytime they bring out a new machine they say "the fastest ever mac"

I've heard that like 3 years ago when I bought my single processor 1.6 ghz G5. Fuckers!!!!!

LOL - that would have been about the time us heathens were using >3Ghz P4s with 800Mhz memeory ;)


The funniest thing in this with these new machines is the only way I could one as the heart of my studio would be to stick windows XP on it and run run it windows only :)


Even apple would have to appreciate the irony in that :lol:

Well, in about a few months from now, you will be able to install OSX
on any PC in same way as you can already install XP on the new macs.

Legally? It has been done illegally for quite a while now.
