My new £6000 machine


Following the exciting yet expected news of release of Mac Pros i have speced my new machine. Or the one i imagine we will be getting for the enw Final Touch Suite at work. The price: just over £6K. This is a massive step up from the price we paid for the dual core. However, mac are providing more cost effective boxes, but c'mon for hd and 2k work we want a bit a muscle. For the full specs check out the store as it has a clearer list. But here is the specs i chose which should get us going out the box and have room for drive and ram upgrades through cheaper avenues.
