It’s about time I get a new Mac Pro, but I’m not sure that now is a good time to buy one
 MacRumors.com don’t recommend buying now because they say that Apple will probably release a new Mac soon. Historically there have been a new upgrade every 8-9 months, and the latest Mac Pro was released in January 2008, so…. http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#Mac_Pro But then I read on several forums that Apple will probably not release a new Mac Pro anytime soon, because they’re waiting for a new processor which is estimated to arrive sometime in 2009 (?) Anyone here with more knowledge about this? |

Whenever you buy something, soon there will be better thing on the market. If you really need it then go for it. I made myself waiting many times like that and then I realized there is no point waiting if I really need the thing. Mac Pro is upgradable. You can have 8 core processors in it. Supports up to 32 GB of RAM. I think you can be happy with this beast for a long time.

QUOTE (Emir Hot @ Sep 22 2008, 10:10 AM)  Whenever you buy something, soon there will be better thing on the market. My reasoning exactly  Six months after you get your computer, it's outdated anyway  So in general terms just get the computer that's suitable for the needs you have at the time you need it. And never look back! -------------------- My bands homepage
