Big Decision.. Buy Now or Holdout?

[jimjim776]

Been savin 4 a year and a half, need a mac to run Pro Tools HD Native...
Do I buy the 12 core w 32 megs of ram and live happily ever after???
or do I wait for the new Mac?????? I would HATE to pay the toll on this
and see a new 16 core with updates galore in the same price range.
Any advice would be helpfull
Thanks

I think you want the Mac Pro forum.

In any case, I seriously doubt Pro Tools can use up to 16 cores.

It's your money, so do what you will, but there's much better ways to spend your money here.

how?

Intel i7 iMac 2011
Windows Workstation

Personally I'd go for the Windows Workstation, last I checked Pro Tools was available on Windows 7.

Pretty sure the world is going to end later this year. I'd buy now.

Better yet, put on credit...You won't have to pay it when the world ends.
