I am not really interested in computers although I have worked with them for ages. Every years or so I am forced by development to upgrade my system so I have to find out what to get.
I am definately going to buy one of the new MacPros. I wonder if there are certain internal HDs that should be avoided, or something that I should go for maybe.
I will probably buy two additional ones. I have many, many samples and will probably get more over the years so at least for that one I may just as well get a 2TB. The recording drive doesn't need to be that big since I backup to an external drive and DVDs quite often. On the other hand it seems that there's not much financial point in buying smaller drives anyway.
Also, with 64 bit catching up, doesn't it make the most sense to get 4GB ram blocks despite the added cost. I am tempted to put 16GBs right away but would like to keep the opportunity open to expand that to a full 32GBs since I on occation do use large samples and packages.
What to do, what to do.....
