Chadwick Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 Currently I have a Power Mac G5 and love it but after 5 years and Apple deciding to use Intel chips completely I'm thinking it's time to upgrade. Does anyone here have a recent iMac or the brand new one for that matter? If so what do you think about it? I'm thinking that the Power Mac might be a little excessive for my daily use and that an iMac might be a less expensive choice and will more the suite my needs. Also, how are the iMac's working with ProTools if you know?? Quote
Free Agent Posted October 21, 2009 Posted October 21, 2009 We've checked them out and the new Snow Leopard system is excellent with pro tools we are told. Read that: We are told. Quote
Ooo Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 I have an Intel MAC Book - Works like a champ... Quote
Chadwick Posted October 22, 2009 Author Posted October 22, 2009 I have an Intel MAC Book - Works like a champ... Those mac books are sweet! Id like to have one of those some day to but I need more of a stationary computer for pro tools software. The Power Mac's are ideal for power tools and other heavy processor operating software but cost about $2500 just for a basic package. I've been hearing about the new iMac and how it is supposed to be close enough for pro tools but wanna make sure before I drop the cash. Quote
vegas style Posted October 22, 2009 Posted October 22, 2009 i love my macbook just over year old and never a issue Quote
cycoguy Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 I just made the switch today. Bought a macbook. so far I like it, taking some getting used to but I can tell I think im gonna like it more than my old windows rig. Quote
Chadwick Posted November 4, 2009 Author Posted November 4, 2009 Once you go Mac, you never go back No seriously it won't take you long to get used to the new operating system. Apple makes their stuff so easy and user friendly. Quote
desertskyz Posted November 4, 2009 Posted November 4, 2009 I have always had Mac but use PC's at work. So I'm pretty preficent on both platforms. However the Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac is killing me. I can't find all the buttons. Kinda like Office 2007 is a pain. I WANT A NEW iMAC. Quote
