I just got quoted on two 2.5 Ghz G5's and two 23" cinema displays for our customer but was told by MacWarehouse that the 2.5's are 'in constraint'...which was explained as they are not available, there are problems and he couldn't say when or if they could get them...anyone else aware of this or is he just stalling me 'cos they have no stock. The quote was ridiculous as well, only £2.50 less than on the apple store ha ha someone please tell me how to get them cheaper!

Well - been using mine since November. So far so good. But then again - I haven't really pushed it. Messed about with Motion today - had the fans going on and off - but I've yet to see what it's like with Audio work. I've got an order in for LogicPro 7 - but quite a lot of MacMusic folks are scaring me on how crappy it is.
Does anyone have anything good to say about LogicPro 7? I've got two video jobs coming up using FinalCutPro and Soundtrack - I'll let you know better after that. To answer ourmanflinty - the G5 2 x 2.5Ghz is good so far. No - I didn't take out Applecare. Options are 2Gig RAM, extra 250Gig HD, M-Audio 1010LT. No, I don't run with the door off - I just worship it in situ and let it get on with its job. If I was in a professional studio - I would want some soundproofing - but it wouldn't need a lot, well - I don't think so. Cheers guys - and thanks for all the info PT |
