MacPro or PC (OSX or Windows)

ScottRwn · Nov 19, 2012, 07:40 AM

I'm currently at an editing job that is ALL PC based (except for the graphics department, as they are all on Macs). The company purchased a NexGen 30TB fiber storage system and says we will be able to edit directly from the server.

Question is, I'm trying to push them to purchase a MacPro, as I've edited on a Mac for the last 9 years (CS6 now) and they are worried Apple might stop hardware support on MacPros. They think the Fiber storage will reject the Macintosh and have constant network connection drops.

Should I accept PC? Or should I push the argument for a Macintosh? And they won't do a Hackintosh (or custom PC builds at that).

Thoughts?
